Good saw, dangerous blade.

High rake angles blades on RAS really make the saw want to climb. The Delta design was better than average about that, but...

If someone here gets that RAS, please do yourself a favor and get a negative rake angle blade for it. You will be much happier.

I looked but I couldn't tell if it was a Forrest WW11 or a WWI blade. WW1 blades are recommended by Forrest for RAS. If it were me buying the blade I would, as iclark  recommended, go with a Forrest chop master blade. It is negative hook. The price for a WW1 and the Chopmaster are about the same. And that changes if it is a 9 " saw..

Great saw, by the way.
