I had a 1/2 x 105" 3TPI hook tooth band saw blade.
it has been in the box for a little over 5 years.
I had bought it thinking I needed a blade, and could not get a Timberwolf
in time. but I did get the timberwolf. Well this blade SUCKS.

After uncoiling it and running it for about 30 minutes it has a set in it
that won't come out. On high tension I still can't get it to run clean.
This is going in the trash and will be the last Olson I'll ever buy...

After 30 minutes (or less) the tension may have changed. Tried
increasing/decreasing it?



Yes, I did. I increased it hoping to take the set out. and kept moving
it up until it finally bottomed the spring out.
It's a good set that won't come out.

I might have lived with it if the cut wasn't so poor. It has a pretty
thick kerf too.
