Last year I swapped to this saw, it fits much better in my space limitations: https://www.kakaindustrial.com/coll...al-bs-85-metal-cutting-band-saw-mini-band-saw
Aside from being an import with a terrible name and sexist warning labels it works quite well for everything I have thrown at it. But the blade is getting worn. It uses a 1325mm blade (52 1/8") which is far more limited than the common 4x6 bandsaw blades.
Blade Serpent has been popping up a lot in my facebook feed. Looks decent, price is about $20 for a sized to fit and they have a wide variety of tooth pitches.

Anyone used them? I want to buy several blades, but I've had very mixed results with bandsaw blades in the past. Some cheapies that cut great and lasted forever, other midprice that cut like **** and then cracked at the weld very early on
