I am guessing, but my curve is about 25" radius. I would expect a 1/2"
blade to be okay on that, but maybe not since it did bind. Perhaps the
kerf
was closing up behind it?

Your blade is fine.
Make certain that the blade is tracking properly on the wheel crown,
and that you have your blade lead set properly. If the blade won't
track in its own kerf, your pivot point is either too far forward of
the teeth, or too far behind, depending on which direction it wants to
(mis-)track.

What is a blade lead? The guide blocks? I haven't heard that term.
