Walked into my walk-in cooler Tuesday and found my brand new bandsaw blade snapped clean in half

I was getting ready to break down a side of beef when I heard this loud twang sound. The blade was just lying there on the floor, not even bent up, just snapped like a twig. I checked the tension and everything was fine, so I have no idea what caused it. Has anyone else had a brand new blade fail on them for no good reason?

Bad batches happen more than people realize, probably a flaw in the metal right from the factory.

I mean, maybe it was a bad batch from the factory, that's happened to a buddy of mine before.
