Just to give is some perspective,, when I was at the sawmill last weekend, they used a 40' blade. They said the cost was about $1000.

get 100' (feet!) of stock for ~$55. (it's 18tpi, though ...)
The sawmill blade was less than 1 tpi. And about 12" wide. I imagine the 18 tpi would have slowed them down a bit ;)
and they probably sharpen it often... not exactly disposable at a grand a blade..
