The Perfect Choice for Custom Cabinets and Fine Furniture

Serious woodworkers appreciate quality

and workmanship. That’s why so many of

them specify Forrest saw blades for build-

ing custom cabinets and fine furniture.

Forrest blades deliver smooth, quiet cuts—

without splintering, scratching, or tearouts.

In fact, independent tests rate our blades

#1 for rip cuts and crosscuts.

Forrest blades and dados have been the

choice of discriminating woodworkers for

almost 60 years. Craftsmen recognize that

our proprietary manufacturing process,

hand straightening, and unique grade of

C-4 micrograin carbide produce exceptional

results. They also know that Forrest blades

are manufactured in the U.S.A. and backed

by superior service.

Read what these customers say:

”Your blades are without question

the best by miles, and I have tried

them all.”

Bob Jensen–Fridley, MN

“These are the finest blades I have owned

and you should be proud of your quality

product.”

Patrick T. Hankard—South Windsor, CT
