Also the bi-metal blades for steel too. And in my many years since the 70's of working in the metal trades. You get what you pay for when it comes to blades. You may not be able to afford a $2000 bandsaw, so you have to skimp there, but don't skimp on the blades.
Do what I did when I bought my little table top band saw, research the blades and the variety you can get. My saw isn't slow enough to cut steel, but is great on wood and brass. Look up videos on Youtube on fine tuning your saw, it's worth it.
