I've switched over to the Freud 410T as my goto blade in my General International Hybrid TS. If I have 1 or 2 boards to rip, I'll use the 410T but if I need to make a number of rip cuts, I'd like to have a dedicated thin kerf rip blade. I'd like something that will not burn at a reasonable feed rate and will leave a smooth edge. A glue-line quality edge is not a must but would be nice. I'm not concerned about cutting plywood, veneer or melamine with this blade, just rips in boards.
I want to keep the cost in the $35 - $50 range. Any suggestions?
FWIW - I've had really good experiences with Freud blades in the past and even the cheaper Diablo line have performed well.
