The workshop I used had a dozen plus false pops due to people cutting wet wood or similar issues. None of the blades were worth saving due to significant warping or damage.
I guess we’re just living in different worlds.
What brand of blades did you use? Most of mine were Forrest or Tenryu. The Forrest blades are very heavy.
This was a decade ago, and a workshop environment with a wide variety of blades.
So random folks, and random blades.
