Yes, we have tried the Forrest 90 tooth blade for Kapex.

It is a nice blade, but our experience is that it does not perform better than the Festool Fine Tooth blade for the Kapex, cat 495 387

The purchase price of the Festool blade is slightly lower.

Both the Forrest and the Festool blade need to be sharpened by qualified people using appropriate equipment.

I did a review of four Kapex blades here: http://www.talkfestool.com/vb/festool-reviews/2836-kapex-saw-blade-review.html It included a Forrest blade. I found the Tenryu to be the best.

Dan's review was done with the 80 tooth forrest blade not the new 90 tooth total different blade .Think the new forrest 90 tooth  would give Tenryu a run for its money.

Does this mean that the blade is good or bad?  [laughing]
