If you look at the packaging on PS wood blades it say that they are "timber
wolf" distributor. I think that the timberwolf brand bandsaw blades are made by www.sullfolkmachinery.com also PS wood uses the same images on their bandsaw blade packaging that is sullfolkmachineries logo. Hmmmm make ya think eh? I Also asked at a wood show and got a very similar response from the PS Wood rep as well. But I could have been misinformed. Just my opinion. I have used blades from both companies and they are both great blades. "Al Reid" wrote in message ... "Kris" wrote in message om... Check with your local tool store, mine can make them for me.

Both correct, Suffolk owner "allows" PS to sell his blades at shows
per his E-mail a couple of years ago. On Tue, 11 Jan 2005 07:21:04 -0500, "Al Reid" wrote: "Kris" wrote in message om... Check with your local tool store, mine can make them for me.

I have used blades from both companies and they are both great blades. I believe it states "From the makers of Timberwolf blades." There are several vendors that buy the same silicon steel blade stock from the same supplier. Therefore, except for possibly the packaging and quality of the welds, they are the same blades.
