9 Inch Reciprocating Saw Blades

[Set name: 4/6TPI(Wood&Nail-Embedded Wood), Number of Items: 10, Set name: 4/6TPI(Wood&Nail-Embedded Wood), Number of Items: 10]
The 4/6 TPI variable tooth pattern makes sense for a demolition blade: aggressive enough for fast cuts through lumber while the bi-metal construction is much better suited to occasionally finding a hidden nail than a conventional wood-only blade.At 9 inches, these have enough reach for thicker framing, beams, branches, and similar work without being excessively long and flexible. The standard reciprocating-saw shank also means there is nothing unusual about fitment.Getting ten blades in the pack is particularly useful for demolition work, where even a good blade eventually loses an argument with the wrong buried fastener. A solid general-purpose set for rough wood cutting where speed matters more than a furniture-grade edge.

These work with our Sawzall and do what we need them to do. Are they the absolute best reciprocating saw blades we've ever used? Maybe not, but that's not necessarily what I need from a big pack like this.Pros25 bladesFit our SawzallWork for wood and nail-embedded woodGood to have for demolitionPlenty of backupsConvenient storage supplyThings to KnowSawzall blades can get absolutely torn up during demolition, especially when you're cutting through old construction with hidden nails and other surprises.Bottom LineFor the kind of work where blades are basically consumables, having 25 on hand is really convenient. They work, and I don't feel like I have to baby every blade trying to make it last forever.

I picked up this pack of demolition blades to use for work. We do property maintenance and remodeling so we use demolition blades like this all the time, but blades can get very expensive fast. Finding good ones can be a challenge.For the price, this pack of 25 blades looks like a great deal. At around $1.50 each, they are a fraction of the cost of the Diablo blades they claim to be "Compatible" with. In reality, they are not compatible at all, but are COMPARABLE to Diablo.These blades are will not compare to any carbide-tipped blade, but the tooth geometry of these can be found in many brands like Diablo, DeWalt, Ryobi, Milwaukee, just to name a few. The design is intended to support the tooth as it goes through nails. It is a successful design and has a proven history. When I saw what tooth geometry this blade uses, I was confident that it would cut, and probably cut through a nail or two, so I dediced to do a torture test.I filled the end of a board with framing nails, galvanized siding nails, roofing nails, construction screws, drywall screws, hardened trim screws, box nails, and trim nails. All of these fasteners vary by hardness and diameter. To make the cut through the 5-1/2" of fastener-embedded, one blade needed about 90 seconds. It struggled to get through the hardened, thick screws. Common nails did not put up much of a fight, but by the end of the cut, any piece of metal was a challenge. The blade did it, so credit where due, but in my opinion, the blade was destroyed at this point. It probably could do some more cutting, but it would be a waste of time. I ran this test twice with different assortments of fasteners and the results were about the same. For the nearly 6-inches of wood and metail, the blade took about 90 seconds to make the cut, but was worn out by the end. When I say worn out, I mean that there were rounded-over teeth, missing teeth, and teeth worn down to nearly nothing. But it did it.I like that these blades came in a little plastic box. The downside is that depending on how it ships, that little box can damage packaging. It is heavy. Outside of a box, there is an excellent chance that it will be lost in shipping. It destroys bags and bubble mailers. Only a box can hold up to the weight. The box is handy to store unused blades. It keeps them contained and the sharp edges out of the way. It is easy to open and get out one blade at a time.I like that the blades are thin. Thicker blades means more force needed to make a cut. These blades seem just barely thick enough to survive a very hard cut which is fine. I don't think making them any thicker would improve performance ot the point that they could significantly improve the cuts. Obviously your results will vary depending on what you are cutting, but for demolition purposes, a pack of these blades to do the entire job is about right and worth the cost of the pack. Any blades that don't get used are there for the next job. Bascially, but making these blades just thick enough to do the job, they end up being an exceptional value.These blades should work in any modern reciprocating saw. The bayonet mount has been pretty much standardized across all brands. I think even older saws can take these blades, so if you have a reciprocating saw, these blades will work.I advise using as much of the blade as possible to make a difficult cut. Trying to make a cut through fastener-embedded wood by focusing the wear on a narrow part of the blade just wastes the rest of the blade. Spread out the wear and you can make the cut faster.I am happy with these blades. They perform well and are reasonably priced. I have no issues with sending out a pack with a demolition crew. Give them a try yourself. I bet you will find that they are excellent. I recommende them.
