long lasting saw blades ?

| Posted in General Discussion on

*
lately we have been using the marathon blades for our skill 77’s. Price around here is 8 bucks. We only get about 2 days out of a blade and we are not cutting through metal. What blades are working best for you in that price range or is a better blade slightly more worth it?

    HI josh, I kinda like those new Riptide blades by PC. Like Marathon, they are made in Japan. May be even from the same plant.
