Hi Steve,
I think it would be great if you did a segment on scroll saw blades reviews. I normally  use Flying Dutch but always looking for something better. Thanks Karl Atkins.

Is there something better....I personally don't think so.

We all know that there are a ton of blades available out there but only 3 are worth a hoot.  Flying Dutchmen imported by Mike Moorlach in South Dakotas.  If you find them anywhere else they have to buy from him as he is the exclusive dealer for them.  FD blades are my go to blades.  You can't beat his service.  The sad thing is Mike is over 80 years young and may not be able to keep up the pace much longer.

Olson blades are #2 on the list and you can get them several places but for price and service Sloans may be the best.

Pegas are 3rd on my list and although i have tried em I don't think they last as long as either of the other two and I did not care for them.  These are just my opinions after scrolling for nearly 30 years.
