Only saws i know came with blades were the Wright saws. 3 blades. 1 for crosscutting,1for ripping and 1 to cut up you moose.
Most other saws have ‘blades’. Except, maybe band saws: not sure what you call those (‘bands’?).

Ours is a sticker that is affixed to the trailer tongue. I suppose that way it’s impossible to move from one trailer to another and cheaper for them.
We pay the sales tax and 75 for a lifetime plate on a trailer 2k or less and I think it's 150 plus tax for a larger trailer.
Many here just put "their" lifetime plate on whatever trailer they are using or buy.
Plus I believe they can stop you to inspect the tag.
The manufacturing industry calls them blades. I worked in manufacturing for eighteen years.
I think NY has everyone else beat. The registration for my "light trailer" (TS 5' X 8') is supposed to be $24.50 per year, but because I don't live far enough away from NYC, we get a $25/yr MTA surcharge, so I pay $49.50 / year to register a tiny little trailer! More than double the price on a dinky trailer, and then the Dems claim they only want to tax the rich!!!
I've owned about 15 motorcycles over the years and only one permanent plate. You mean to tell me that's not copacetic?
You think that bad, look at IL. My 5 x 8 single axle trailer use to cost $18/yr. Now it's $118/yr. I didn't get new plates this year since I'm only using it on country roads.
Dew to covid and a lot of DMV's being closed, they are not enforcing tags as much right now.
I own two trailers, build both, and have never titled or tagged either, nor paid any taxes. Been pulling them everywhere for at least 10 years. One day I will get caught, but I have saved enough already to pay any fine.

Good for you, but around here if they see you don't have it tagged, or the tag sticker is not the right color (it changes every year), or if a light is not working, you will get pulled over almost every day. Between the local Sheriff and the State Troopers, most days I go by a law enforcement vehicle.
Having working blinkers and brake lights (sometimes I use them just so they can see that they work) saves you from a lot of pull overs.

That is terrible! I wish the people would get fed up and put a stop to outrageous taxes, but it seems we are all just becoming more like sheep!
This is one thing we in California pay much less for. Ten dollars every five years.

That is one of the main reasons I have a Stihl stable. Just stuck a saw again the other day. Makes it real easy to drop the power head.
Yes it's ridiculous since it's not like I use it everyday. I looked it up and it appears IL will offer a Forever plate in 2022 and for you guessed it $118. Now if I only can live for another 10 years, it's pay for itself.
Minnesota may be in the Midwest but our government likes to tax and fee us like the high dollar states on the coasts.
Jesse Ventura didn’t do much as governor but he lowered license fees for about 15 years. When that bill expired they went sky high.
We leased a new suburban for a couple of years. When the Ventura bill expired my tags went from $127 up to $650 PER YEAR. Your tags are based on the value of your car. My older vehicles are at a flat rate of $65 per year.

When I was in my teens I had two Internaional trucks, a 55 1 ton flat bed-and a 63 4X4 1 ton pickup. The vin plate screwed on the inside of the drivers door. I had one set of plates I’d use on both trucks, registered to the 55. If I wanted to use the 63 I’d swap the vin plates to match the tag. Got up one morning to run over to DMV to title and tag a car. I forgot my insurance info, called home, no answer. So I drove back home to get what I needed. Drove back to DMV and got every thing done. Sitting at a red light a cop car with two cops in it pulled up next to me and were pointing and laughing at my old IH. When the driver saw me looking at him he smiled and waved. I thought I was good so I smiled and waved back. Got home and when I pulled up my Dad asked where my tags were. I looked at the other truck. OOPS, I forgot I had switched them. Back then our DMV was out in farm country and all farmers had to do was spray paint “Farm Use” on the door or tailgate, and no tag needed. I still laugh at how many cops walked past that truck sitting in DMV’s lot and never gave it a thought.
