Olsen makes a few, but most companies start at 1/8"

I have one - got it at Highland Hardware
Guy used to demonstrate boxes and log castles on youtube - said he used a 1/16 inch blade
It's a little bigger than 1/16 not counting teeth

A decade or two ago, after reading Duginske's bandsaw book, I looked for a 1/16" blade. At that time there were still references to which company had made them (Starrett? Lenox?) but they had been discontinued and were no longer for sale.

I still have the 1/16th blade - never used - sized for Delta 14" saw
I recently moved my shop and it's in a box somewhere - I can find it
I can mail it - I'm in Canada

Glad you made the post. I was looking for one so we could use it for bandsaw boxes.
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

I would have thought a 1/8" blade would be sufficient for bandsaw boxes, even with quite tight curves. The 1/16" blade is of particular use for fitting sideways into a tablesaw kerf, for instance to cut dovetail baselines in one pass.

For that to. Well hopefully.
