I think Dewalt or Diablo make a pretty thin blade...  You may have to go down to an 8" blade...

I bought the thin Diablo blade for cutting veneered ply wood it was a decent blade but didn't last as long as the thicker ones !

I found a .061 kerf ( infinity blades) but $169 bucks....My band saw is an old Sears 80" and i normally use a Woodslicer blade ( .025 kerf) but my drift is noticeable so .. I have a gabon/maple herringbone inlay i lay up so I am trying to stretch that material for max. number of inlays it can produce.

If you have a decent bandsaw get a 6/10 VP bimetal blade. Make sure your saw is well tuned and saw veneers against the fence.

I use a big bad 12 in diablo blade on my table saw that has survived tons of abuse as I have learned to cut lumber from logs... osage. To be honest I've never considered using a thinner blade. It really seems like a good idea after all the work that goes into chopping up square lumber.

Diablo has one for circular saws that is pretty thin, I think it is called a rough lumber blade about $10 and work well.  I have been using one for a good while for ripping lams.
