Been sawing for 35 years. I would never run a blade at 900 RPM. Have it hammered for 500 to 600 and have adequate power to pull it. My saw runs about 450 rpm and it does fine.

If something goes wrong, which will be the case some day, I prefer things to be running slower. Also the number and spacing of teeth is important. For hardwood you want a saw with wide spaced teeth. Too many teeth in the log at one time eats up power and can heat the blade. I could go on and on but will stop for now. Richard
