Does anyone have opinions about the quality of these 14" bandsaw blades from Sears? Item no 29365. The Craftsman Club price is $36.00 Sept 9-15. Normally $50.00.

I have never had a good experience with a Craftsman BS blade . . . YMMV.

For blade recommendations search this site for "Iturra". They don't have a website but they do have about the best blades around for killer prices.

Olson makes those blades and they are made in the USA.

I think they are great.I've tried all three sizes but mostly I use the 1/4" blade and just dulled up my first one after a whole lot of cutting.

For me they all have tracked good ,cut good, lasted good,and I've been real happy with them even though i paid full price.

I even bought another set of three so I'd have extras.

Once I wear these out,i'll probably try something else though because I keep hearing follks talk about other brands and I want to give 'em a try.

Must be different blades that I got from Sears. Those were aweful. I have a couple Olsen for my big band saw, the smaller ones for curves, etc. Still can't beat the Iturra for resawing.
