I see Malco has 4" , 110 tpi, .040 circular saw blades for about $30. Catch is the minimum order is $100.

I was wondering if anyone else is interested. I need 2 of these and looking for anyone else interested in ordering another 1 or two.

 

I will order and ship to anyone interested. Payment can be made through Venmo.

Current build: NRG Half Hull

FYI, MALCO has recently been acquired by  Martindale Electric Company.  I received that info in an email a few days ago.  If you are doing business with MALCO you will probably get the same.

The Malco website is still up and running as of today. Wonder if Malco will remain Malco under Martindale as a seperate company?

Thanks for this info, Chuck!  I had not heard about this.  I was a first-time customer of Malco back around Christmas time, when I purchased $200 worth of blades for my Byrnes saw.  The blades I have used so far have worked very well.  Hope the quality stays high.

There was /is a banner at the Malco site saying only the ownership had changed.  All the employees and infrastructure remain the same.

 

I use their blades with my Proxxon FET and have never had a problem.
