I have noticed a number of posts on the forums where members have mentioned how much they love Flying Dutchman scrollsaw blades. I had never tried them and wanted to test them out for myself.
In the interest of blade comparison, (and not to mention I didn't have much to do that day) I decided to "test drive" some different brands of scrollsaw blades. Since I couldn't do the blindfold test
I had a friend put different brands of blades in unmarked envelopes. Since I didn't know what brand was which, I was unbiased.
I cut the same pattern on the same types of wood and then evaluated the blades performance while I cut, and afterwards on the inside of the cuts, the surface and the underside.
I expected I would find a blade I liked better, I expected I would pick the famous Flying Dutchman, but as it turned out, I chose the same brand of blade all over again.
What is your favorite brand of blade?
