TUFF SAW BLADE which one ?

[gaci]

I'm looking at getting a tuff saw blade out of there Wood blade category
Which type should I buy standard , premium, carbon, bi metal. I will be cutting hard and soft Wood and don't want to regret buying a blade that's rubbish.

You won't buy rubbish from Tuffsaws IMO but if unsure ask Ian. I cut oak and softwood with a regular 1/2 inch skiptooth blade, no problems. Don't use the same blade for curves, keep one specially for this task.

Its not so much the type of wood as the type of cut.

Cutting bandsaw boxes needs an entirely different blade to ripping long planks into thinner pieces.
you should think about 3 blades to cover almost all eventualities.

Thanks gentlemen I will be buying 3 I think for thick ripping boards, tight curves, and general blade.
