Customer Reviews for Milwaukee SAWZALL Wood and Metal Cutting Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blade Set (8 Piece)

These are really effective reciprocating saw blades. At first blush they don't seem very sharp, as they are coated with a paint / vinyl-feeling material. But I can attest that they cut very well, in both wood and metal. The wood blades can cut nails too, so great for standard demo work, though I didn't have any nail-embedded wood to try them on. As expected they fit any standard reciprocating saw. After a few test cuts that went very smoothly, the blades hardly seem affected at all. I think they will last a long time. I tested them with a cheap B+D cordless saw but I am sure they would cut even better with a corded saw or one with more power. The blades come with a nice storage pouch, which takes a bit of figuring out. Put all the blades in, then fold the top down, then roll it up and fasten with the Velcro strip on the outside. It rolls up nice and compact to fit in your saw bag or toolbox, and will keep the blades dry and clean.

This useful blade assortment comes with a handy carrying pouch that keeps them together and protects both the blades and my hands when I grab for them. I have used the fine tooth blades for metal cutting and they cut quickly in a hand held Sawzall. I have used the coarser blades for wood cutting and they cut through plywood and dimensional lumber quickly. These blades have a fang tip that allows them to plunge cut in a sheet of plywood, which is great for cutting large holes in plywood and avoids the need for drilling a starter hole.

High quality saw blades that will out perform and out last the cheaper saw blades on the market. These blades will cut right through nails in the wood, great for demo work. Then they will continue to cut for a long time. No more cringing when hitting that hidden nail thinking you just destroyed your blade. They can take a beating without snapping or breaking like many of the China made blades. These blades are Made in the USA. Comes with a convenient pouch, but I found the teeth on the blades do snag when inserting or removing the blades from the pouch. I used these blades in my 25 year old Milwaukee Sawzall Reciprocating Saw, and they cut like first day I brought it home. Once you use Milwaukee blades, you will wonder why you ever tried to save a few bucks on those cheaper blades.

Milwaukee sawzall blades have become my favorite brand. There are cheaper blades out there but that's what you get, cheaper. They just don't hold up compared to these. Since purchasing my first pack of Milwaukee blades some time back, haven't worn out a single blade. And I've really put them to the test. The demo blades eat through nails (even mason nails) like they're not there. I heated that blade but it still cuts almost like a new one. But I have wood and metal cutting blades as well, that turn circles around others. I have a variety of brands at the moment but mostly just use those for sacrificial jobs, sort of test the water before putting my Milwaukee blades to work. This particular pack is exceptional as it comes with the unique vinyl case and fits into my sawzall carry case perfectly. Some things draw a fine line between value and quality but Milwaukee has made this line huge since the quality of these blades is in fact their value. They're tough and stay sharp through the toughest tasks. Note in my photo's I added 3 multi purpose scraping blades. These are not included in this set but fit nicely into the case.

This sawzall set is great as it provides such a large variety of saw blades and sizes. There are 8 to choose from and the best part is that they are all packed nicely into the slotted carrying case. the case itself is sturdy, well made and perfectly sized to house the blades. we do a lot of projects at our home, so it's great to keep extra blade around in the event that they break in use, or you need a special size.

Durable and nice features in this set of Milwaukee Sawzall metal cutting blades. First of all, it carries the Milwaukee brand name which is among the top brands for the professional and even the DIYer. A good selection of thin Kerf metal blades come in this set – six 6-inch blades (two 5 TPI for wood w/nails, two 14 TPI and two 18 TPI), and two 9-inch 5 TPI. All are packaged in a nice carrying/storage soft-fabric roll-up case. Great addition to your toolbox.

I did not expect to be so impressed with saw blades, but this set is awesome and it is made in the USA! I could not believe how much better they performed compared to some other blades I have used. I had some projects to finish, but kept putting them off. These blades are tough, and I got the wood, metal, and plastic pieces cut quickly. I expect to be using my Hackzall much more now that I have tried these Milwaukee blades. The heavy-duty canvas pouch with Velcro closure is just what I needed for safely storing my blades. It has five sections for sorting different kinds of blades. It will hold more than the 8 included blades (which can fit into just one of the sections) and will fit blades up to 12" long. After rolling up the pouch and securing the tab, the blades are held in tightly. This set includes: (2) 6 inch for wood (2) 9 inch wood for wood (2) 6 inch 14TPI blades for medium to thick metal (2) 6 inch 18TPI blades for thin metal

Exactly what I ordered

Blades were what I wanted and were delivered in a timely fashion.

This set of 8 thin kerf bi-metal blades plus roll-up storage provides a good combination for a variety of cutting tasks from nail-embedded wood, schedule 40 pipe, angle iron with wall thickness up to 7/16", ... Milwaukee claims 2X the life of previous SAWZALL blades; this is achieved thru a combination of tooth shape, strengthened neck, and a proprietary process called ice hardening which provides up to 50% longer life and seems to conflict with the 2X claim ... from my experience of 10 cuts each into pressure treated 2X4s with up to 4-embedded framing nails per cut and 3/8" rebar, the blades will definitely last longer since neither blade showed wear beyond scuffing of the finish. The roll-up case is canvas and has 5 slots for keeping blades in place and organized; it can be used for blades up to 12" in length - excellent! I would recommend this product.

First thing First. I am impressed with Milwaukee and they keep on impressing me with the quality of all their tools and other products. I have yet to use the wood cutting blades yet but the metal cutting blades my oh my how do they cut. I was helping my son with his truck and we had to cut the floor of his bed out and I wanted to try these on it. Just like butter Could not of asked for a better cutting blade. Can't wait to try the wood ones out.

This Milwaukee SAWZALL Wood and Metal Cutting Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blade eight piece Set is the DIY'er friend! With our family home renovation project, were able to remove and relocate door way assemblies, perform new plumbing task, open up new room accesses and create new electrical openings for additional power outlets. Cutting through nail-embeded studs and large staple sheeting were non-issues. Was pleasantly surprised how quick and efficient the cutting design worked, with plenty of available cut-ability for future demo task...these teeth Stay Sharp!

A very nice starter set of blades. Contains everything you would need for general material cutting. The pouch is fantastic and fits nicely in my packout box next to my saw.

Good quality and assortment of blades. The blade pouch could accomodate a plentiful amount of assorted blades and was flexible enough to fit nicely into my Milwalkee Sawzall carrying case.
