Hello,
Which Flying Dutchman blade model is the best? I realize each blade size has it's own characteristics, but is any one model better or more reliable than the others? Probably like asking which model Ford is best, F150, F250 or F350 ;-)
Anyhow, is the Ultra Reverse any better than the Scroll Reverse? And is the Scroll Reverse better than the XL? Just trying to decide what to include in my next order.
If you prefer one over the other, can you advise why? Does it cut smoother, last longer, or maybe cause less tear-out. The price difference between the 3 isn't all that big, so I'm looking more for quality over price savings. Not so much interested in the size as the benefits of each different model. Obviously I'd use a 3 for lighter wood and tighter turns than lets say a 7 for thicker, more dense wood. But if I were comparing Number 5 blades across each of the 3 models, which if any would put the bigger smile on my face in the end.
The description between the Ultra Reverse and Scroll Reverse are virtually identical, except that the Scroll Reverse includes the word "Hardened"... (Top-grade high-speed fretsaw, with reverse teeth. Splinter-free finish on top and bottom surfaces. )
