Well here is another related controversy. This has come up before, but never really gone away.
I find that Vallorbe saw blades break much more easily than they used to:
Are they doing it on purpose?
Is it the impatience of old age?
Am I now unable to hold my workpiece still enough?
Can I no longer hear the correct ping of the tension?
Whatever the reason, after much experimentation with costly and useless marques, I have come down to Bergeon from the dreaded Cousins, which on some very long sessions have lasted much much better. And no, I am not a cousin of Bergeon.
Dennis.
