I get my blades for the common cheapy bandsaw 4.5" as sold by
Machinemart in my case from www.jlindustrial.co.uk

but these are 1615mm (5' 4.5"), are you sure yours is 1715mm. Apart from
that I have http://www.accurate-cutting.co.uk/blades_doall.htm
bookmarked but have not contacted them, I was looking for diamond edged
bandsaws at the time. If yours is about 1615mm (5'4.5" ) then you might
also look at warco http://www.warco.co.uk/
