I ordered 20 ripper 37 blades from Jerrys Resharp on Wednesday. They got here today. I thought that was pretty good turnaround. How long is it taking to get blades from other suppliers?
I ordered 60 T7's from Woodmizer not to long ago. I was told 8 weeks, but they showed up in about 4 weeks
I ordered from Kasco in may and they said August but I got them in July.
About 1½ months ago, I ordered a flat-pack of 10° blades from Wood-Mizer, they were on my porch in 2 days!

If most sawyers have gone with 7 degree blades those 10 degree blades may have been sitting on the shelf for a while.
I get ripper 37's from a supplier here in Oregon. It's been taking a week or two from the time I order to them being on my doorstep.

10° blades have always given me good service, so why change and it doesn't really matter if they've been sitting for a while, they're still new.
Chuck White I totally agree with that mindset.
