   You may get dozens of various responses on this. I've been happy with Timber Wolf blades.

   I buy from Highland.

   Highland has a 3/8 inch woodturner's blade that cuts through hardwoods very nicely, however it leaves a bit of a rough edge. It also resaws quite well.

   I have a saw that's dedicated to resawing. For my other saw, I keep a 3/16" blade on it for all my curve cutting. For me, 3/8 doesn't cut a very tight curve. 1/4" is OK, but 3/16 cuts a tighter radius.

   I have very particular choices for resaw brands. But for the narrow blades it never mattered much. Timberwolves are good, but I feel they're a little overpriced. Starrett Duratech are just as good, but better deals can be had. On this saw I need 115" length, which are hard to find in 3/16. I get mine from Carter, and it does a really nice job.

   I purchase my bandsaw blades from BandSawBladesDirect.com. I have a 14” bandsaw and purchased a 1/2”, 3 TPI Lenox Tri-master carbide tipped blade for resawing and general purpose. The cut is impressive - a very smooth cut thru 6” hard maple. The blade wasn’t cheap - $162 but imo very worth it. This company will sharpen when required. I highly recommend this source.

   I buy mostly from Highland woodworking. Have 4 bandsawa at work. Love the woodslicer but not for tight curves.

   Any sharp skinny blades should be fine. Emphasis on sharp/ new.
