Does anyone have any input on the In-Line Industries 10″ combination blade?
I’ve read that it is as good as the Forrest Woodworker II, and it’s also priced for less.
Their website doesn’t say, but do they do their own sharpening, like Forrest?

I would doubt they do sharpening as they don't even make the blades. I;m betting it's an import blade so you can't compare it fairly to a Forrest blade.

The In-line Industries TS2000 is a top-rated American made Ridge Carbide TS2000. It's really a nice general purpose blade IMHO....very similar to the geometry and configuration of the Forrest WWII, and offers a choice of kerf width. Ridge Carbide claims to be 30% thicker than those on the WWII, and I'll vouch that they are. In-line Industries is reputable too...mostly known for their "PALS" and their "Dubby" sled. I don't think In-line offers sharpening, but Ridge Carbide does...
...FWIW, Holbren.com offers the Ridge Carbide with free shipping and a 10% break to Sawmillcreek, Woodnet, and BT3Central members....~ $80 shipped.
