I heard about this saw blade on my local (Wisconsin) public radio

They're getting ready to sell it through Amazon. It's pretty pricey
at $176 per blade, but also it seems to be an amazing saw blade.


I've got a Forrest thin kerf blade. I found that depending on the
grain/figure of the wood the blade would sometime deflect slightly. I
ended up also buying a Forrest full kerf blade. I can only imagine what a
1/16" kerfed blade might do.

If you go to the web site:

You'll see that the blade appears to have a "thickened" center, sort of a
"built in" blade stabilizer.
That would, of course, limit the depth of cut.
$176. rules it out for me. I'm happy with my Forrest.
