I would suspect a damaged Forrest blade. These things get tossed around

Seeing how all cuts were made on the same saw, with the same setup, I
see no other explanation ... that particular Forrest blade is apparently
not up to the standards we are used to.

I would return it regardless.

That said, it would interesting to try both blades on a well setup
cabinet saw to see the how they fare.

I've seen quite a few inexpensive blades made the first few dozen cuts
quite nicely, but you generally needed three or four blades to get
through a project; while a Forrest will take you through a dozen or more
of the same size projects with the same quality cuts.
