I bought a blade from R & D for cutting green wood and I've been very happy with it. I never bothered to compare it to my other bands but it maybe has a bit more kerf and maybe deeper gullets. The cut is a bit on the rough side but it's fast.

Sorry Herb, I wasn't thinking about them being a Canadian company that nobody else would have heard of. R & D is the actual company name. I get all my bands from them as they make to length and I have an oddball machine. I've had good luck with them. https://tufftooth.com/
