I use Tenryu Mel Pro 100T or a Leitz 80T and Forrest HI ATB. I cut mostly Okume lumbercore Plywd with wht. laminate on both sides and 13 ply maple. When ripping hardwoods I use a Tenryu 24 T rapid cut or a Frued combination. I change blades often depending on the material i'm cutting.
What brand blade is in your TS right now?

I've Forrest Woodworker II. I did a major project ripping & cutting cheery (finished) panels. Couldn't have bought a better blade.
Couple of days ago I removed it from the saw and cleaned it using Toolsaver
system (http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=11497) to restore to its
original look. I had great results. Should have cleaned it bit sooner.Last edited by kmk; 08-16-2007, 10:42 PM.Comment

There's a Delta on the new saw. Hopefully the tool gloat and pic will make it up today."It's a dog eat dog world out there, and I'm wearing Milk-Bone underwear."- Norm (from Cheers)

Just bought mine from CL and cracked it open to blow it out...the blade is literally unmarked except for an engraved KBL 40T...engraved by hand I believe.
lol...odd...so I choose other. :P Have a disposable Oldham 60T finishing blade ready to cut a bunch of laminate flooring. I don't expect the blade to survive long after the job.

Some one dug this up so Ill comment, I have quite a few freud blades from when we discontinued them at work.
I haven't used my saw for a few months till Sunday and I had to trim a miniblind to install and I noticed I had a Dewalt 8-1/4" treated lumber blade from my circular saw in there
I guess its still in there from when I did my shed last fall, but it did its jobComment
