Melamine Blade

Does anyone have recommendations for a 10" TS blade for melamine. I'm
looking at the one on Lee Valley's site which is in my price range.
Anything else I should be looking at? Experiences?

tia,

I got the Forrest Hi-AT/B blade (Lee Valley sells it). Pricey, but I
have to admit it does an incredible job. Zero tearout as far as I can
tell, ready to glue edges.

I agree, you can rarely go wrong with a Forrest, but that's a little out of
my price range for the amount of work I'll be doing with it.

Thanks for the recommendation.

David,

Looked into your request. International tools has the non-teflon coated on
sale for $40 which seems like an almost gloatable deal. Did you get the
teflon or non-teflon. Would you recommend this purchase? I think the two
are identical except for the coating.

Get a Freud Industrial double sided melamine blade. "double sided"
means both the top and bottom will be chip free. Amazing blade. don't
get the Freud the Borg sells.

:) that's ok. I've made more typos than the average bear. and also
substituted homonyms. I think I posted the part number recently. I'll
see if i can find it and get back to you in a few minutes.
