Ron Can you give me details please for Axminster. I need new blades for my bandsaw and it seems you are happy with the quality of supply.

The blades I get from Axminster these days, seem a lot better than those I have used in the past, and less prone to loosing teeth. It's well over a year now since I discarded a blade.
