Contractors and builders use them to cut small workpieces. This is not uncommon for them to be used with metal or plastic.
A carbide-tipped bandsaw knife will run you well over $100. It is worth spending about a third of that amount to have it sharpened and functioning like new again. The majority of bandsaw blades (including the Wood Slicer) are not worth the cost to sharpen.
