porta-band saw blade brands ?

[sweetk30]

seems lenox is having supply problems or not going to be doing them anymore .

has anyone delt with places like www.sawblade.com for there blades ?

i have tried other brands off the store shelf's and not happy with them . the lenox master-band was the best for me . so i figure try one of these bigger company's for cutting stuff .

I run Milwaukee blades in the porta band. No complaints...

I actually haven't had bad luck with the ones at HF. Surprisingly.
I've used the ones at work. Not sure of brand but they usually buy nice chit. And I haven't found a lot of difference between em.

I use the Milwaukee blades, but I don't like the new staggered tooth blades. I still buy the even tooth blades, I feel like they last longer. Unless I just had a bad batch of the stagger tooth type.

My DoAll band saw has a welder on it.... It's not hard to make blades from stock.... Pondered making blades for my portable saw

I’ve run a bunch of stuff from sawblade (I have their Trajan 170), and been satisfied, but the regular Milwaukee blades are tough to beat for value. I get those by the three pack.

I buy the Milwaukee brand in 50 blade packs. I use my saw almost daily.
