Bandsaw Blades

[Shotgunone]

What kind of bandsaw blade (64 1/2 size) is best for cutting ATS-34 and/or titanium?

I cut out several blades blanks this weekend (8 to be exact) and my saw blade is pretty well shot. Am I expecting too much from my saw blades to cut 8 blanks. These are blades that I get from the local hardware store.

Should I be looking for something special in my blades?

Where to get blades from?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I bought a 64 1/2 inch blade from TKS about two months ago and I can say that the 27 bucks was worth it. It was cryo'ed and it made a believe out of me. It just keeps cutting and cutting and .....

I have purchased mine from Ellis Mfg. for years. Their Bi-metal blades just keep on cutting. Their number is (800) 383-5547. A 64" blade will run you around $15.00.
