Saw Blade Reviews & Buying Guides

Saw blades include everything from circular saw blades to hole saws, reciprocating saws, and jig saw blades. Of course, you also have miter saw blades, table saw blades, and even bandsaw blades. If it spins or goes back and forth to cut, we likely cover it! We’ve covered the best thin kerf miter saw blades and also the best SawZall blades for any job. Whether you prefer Milwaukee SawZall blades or Diablo reciprocating saw blades, we use all major brands extensively and have racked up plenty of testing data. Saw blades have evolved from simple stamped steel solutions. Many now incorporate carbide teeth or carbide bands that enhance cutting capability as well as durability. Where diamond grit recip blades once dominated cast iron cutting, now carbide blades give you better performance and cutting speed. This category continues to improve almost faster than we can keep up.

Milwaukee’s New SawZall Ax Blades

by Clint DeBoer

When we attended Milwaukee Tool’s 2010 Press Event to check out their new line of tools and accessories, we were forbidden by NDA to talk about their newest line of SawZall Ax blades. This week, the company released us from that and we can now show off the innovative new wood cutting SawZall Blades. They come in both standard and “The Ax” profiles, which delivers a very fast cut with the ability to survive cross-cut nail impacts. The Ax also has one of the quickest plunge cuts of any blade we’ve seen. Take a look at the design of the individual cutting blades and you’ll see how they are made to ride backwards over a nail and not catch, breaking the teeth

Final Cut Saw Blade Review

by Thomas Gaige

The Final Cut 10″ Saw Blade is one of those ideas that almost seems too easy. Install some sandpaper on the sides of a saw blade and then you can cut and sand in one pass. When we first heard of about the Final Cut Saw Blade it reminded us of something we might see on a late night infomercial that could have questionable results. The idea seemed simple enough, but we had some questions as to durability and long term use that we wanted to investigate.

Lenox 8 Diamond Cast Iron Reciprocating Saw Blade

by Clint DeBoer

Anyone who has ever gone through the process of attempting to update, remove or otherwise cut into cast iron pipe will find a new appreciation for Lenox Diamond reciprocating saw blades. Cast iron is an incredibly dense, thick metal and it is frequently used in older homes for sewage ventilation and drainage. Tying into this pipe entails a cut across 4-inches of the toughest stuff you’re likely to encounter. To accomplish the task, you’ll need much more than a basic metal reciprocating saw blade.
