Thanks but is the Forrest blade really worth the extra cost. Maybe.
Also, whats the wisdom on thin kerf blades. I don't think wood waste
is a viable bonus for most applications. The only upside I think makes
sense is that its less work for the saw but that has been counter by
those that say with a sharp blade it doesn't matter. The down-side
that makes the most sense is that the thin kerf blades have more flex
and vibrations.

Again CMT or Freud?


No experince with CMT. Freud makes good blades and I use a couple of them.

Only real advantage of a thin kerf is less power is needed. If you have a
benchtop saw, it may make a difference on some cuts or thick, hard wood.
