Speaking of various types of butchery, have you ever cut (or been
tempted) to cut frozen meat of some type on your Laguna bandsaw? Is
there such a thing as a butchers blade for a home bandsaw?

Considering the lasting damage caused by my Jet 18" BS when I had a
momentary laps and reached into a standard 3/4" blade, I don't think
you need anything special to cut meat and bone efficiently.

I have read about special blades for meat cutting. However, I don't
know what kind of difference one would make compared to a woodworking
blade.

I was also wondering if it was inadvisable to chance blood and gore
(initally frozen" spread around the insides of a woodworking bandsaw?

yes, a real mess - DAMHIKT
