Thanks

I used to use Timberwolf exclusively .... have recently changed to Olson All Pro. Same great performance and low tension, at about 1/2 to 2/3 the cost depending on the blade. Rockler for one has them.

Timberwolf blades. Others Have broke or wore out. Not so with Timberwolf. Have no idea on what is best price, if I need it I will pay the price, If I don't needit, I don't.
Grizzly has them as well as other blades in various sizes.
