presision ground blades?
I've been living for the past 17 years on Sears Craftsman blades. I would like to get some feedback on Presision ground blades. I noticed that a tight left hand turns take a little concentration. Do PG's alieviate this.

Hi Jim, I don't want to start a blade war but I live by the PGT's. SteveComment

Danger! Danger! Blade disscussion. I have been using the PGT blades for a while the only draw back with them is the smallest blade is a 5. They have almost no burr and cut straight. You didn't say what you were cutting or how thick. All of the blade manufacturers have some excellent blades and we all have our favorites. You will see a dramatic difference between the PGT and the Craftsman blades.Rolf

I recently switched to the Flying Dutchman blades and was very impressed. They last a long time and have a good selection of sizes. You can get free samples from www.mikesworkshop.comComment

STANDARD ANSWER ALERT: I always tell people to get some samples from a variety of sources (listed in alphabetical order below)
Flying Dutchman (www.mikesworkshop.com)
Olson (www.olsonsaw.com)
Pegas (www.bensscrollsaw.com)
Each has blades that work for different people...I've got blades by all three and use them for different projects.
