Default Re-sawing with a bandsaw!

I currently use a 2 hook blade for re-sawing.
http://busybeetools.ca/cgi-bin/pictu...NTITEM=CT01501

I have this band saw.
http://busybeetools.ca/cgi-bin/pictu...&NTITEM=CT015N

I have had several different opinions on the best blade and speed to use.
I re-saw all hard wood at a medium setting.

Looking for advice on what works for you, with this size saw. I wish to get the best I can out of this saw

Thanks
John

Been as thats a Canadian distributed bandsaw, you might have better luck getting information on one of the Canadian wood forums.

Why Canadian???? My saw has no launage or cultural barriers.

I was not asking for a saw review, but the best blade for this style of bandsaw for the use of re-sawing. It was blades I was interested in.

Sorry for the inconvience of asking a non Canadian site, my intention was the pursuit of knowledge..... and knowledge comes from all corners of the world.

Sorry
John
