blades can be repaired after a SS crash. ...
I think the plate might actually require straightening after. I can't
imagine that the forces would not cause any deformation while happening.

Well, yes, that's routine every time you send them one, whether it's
been in a SS event or not...

Reflattening might be routine for you but Forrest does not re-flatten or
check flatness for that matter unless requested.
When I send my blades in to Forrest for resharpening I give specific
instructions to return to factory specs instead of do this, do that, do
what ever. I also tell them to call me if repairs and resharpening will
exceed $50. I think I only had to pay extra to re-flatten one time
after I tilted the bevel with the zero insert in place.
Forrest does not assume anything, they want explicit instructions.
That's good wording. I stopped by there one day.
I explained the problem I was experiencing while cutting.
He looked at my carbide, said it needed sharpening.
Then he brought it over to one of the guys for a quick inspection.
They work in dark rooms, I assume they are using an optical comparitor.
He quickly checked and said it was warped.
That would explain the rough cuts.
Next blade I buy will be a full kerf rather than a thin kerf.
But that's after I get my saw stop.
