advice wanted on table saw blade

This blog post by knotscott should help: Tips for Picking Saw Blades

Don’t use 30mm arbor blades or job site TS anymore, so can’t make any direct recommendations.

Best Luck.

Thats a very in depth article, which has helped me a lot to decide which blade to buy, thanks very much. BUT….. searching the internet I have come up with the closest match to my ideal blade, which is a Festool 575974 blade. It meets all the requirements bar one, the blade tooth design is listed as “PW”, and I can not find any explanation of that design anywhere. Are there any festool owners around who could explain?

Fe$$tool Lists a PW12. They have a. blade The call “Panther Wood”. It is a metric blade, I see you are from Cypris so may be what you need.

But a real explanation I do not have.

Yes, thats what I am going to buy (from the UK though, as my choices are very limited here).
From the UK websites they list the teeth style as “PW”, where I was expecting to see FTG.
maybe its their own brand style of tooth?
