Anyone ever used Bosch reciprocating saw blades? I had no idea Bosch made them until I saw them a week or 2 ago at Menards and they intrigued me because they had a brushed metal feel instead of the typical slick painted feel that many other blades have. Felt like the aluminum on an iPhone. Never seen any reciprocating blades with a brushed finish before.

I’ve used milwaukee blades and they work like a dream. Trimmed a whole tree with one ax blade and it still had most of the blade coating left and was ready for more work.

I have used my Milwaukee axe blades thousands of times and they are the same blades that came used with my makita sawzall love them
It looks like they have quite a lineup ?
I’m interested in getting a pruning blade. I got this row of bushes in my back yard that gotta be trimmed every year. I’ll have to look onto Bosch blades some more. I read daredevil blades on your picture and was instantly interested because I’ve used the spade bit daredevils and they work great. The self feed function is an amazing feature.

Yes there daredevil bits are hella amazing i was interested in them also . I have a yard with tons of trees and i also cut fire wood with my sawzall
I could use my dads corded hedge trimmer but it’s corded and you can’t cut large branches with it. Also its who knows how old. My grandpa used to own it. It’s old enough to where it has no cord. You plug the extension cord into the plug at the back of the tool.

I think this may be the same model. Kinda a Powermatic yellow. Apparently it’s a Black and Decker. I’m hoping a pruning blade can replace it.

Lol very nice man 🙂
I want to try them but i have a ton of blades still. It’s hard to buy another blade when Diablo runs $1 blade promotions three times a year.
Bosch is my go-to for jigsaw blades, I’m sure the recip blades are good too. For the record, I don’t like the Milwaukee blades but they aren’t terrible.

Pretty cheap at Lowe’s too. $1 a blade: Home Depot
Edit: This set is cheaper at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Bosch-T5002-10-Piece-Assorted-T-Shank/dp/B0000TZZVA/

Are the new ax carbide blades out yet? The ones shown off at the Milwaukee event last June. Looks like home depot has some ax cabide blades but I’m not sure if they are the new ones. Something like $13-$14 for a pack of five 12in
I swear i have seen them last time i was at hd . Holy shit these blades look evil
Bosch makes a few really good recip blades but the rest are just average. It’s not like some other manufacturers that are just depending on people buying the same brand as their saw, but diablo is generally the beset to pick up.

Those pruning blades are amazing. It nearly turns your reciprocating saw into a chainsaw. Wet oak tree branches and my Hackzall, no problem. I don’t even need the Sawzall with those, I’ve cut 6″ live branches like nothing with the Fuel Hackzall.

Damn i will get some next time i am in hd
Use bosch blades for the jig and they are fantastic. I’m sure any other blades they make would work fine I’m sure. For the jig blades they have tons of selection for different cuts.
Bosch jig saw blades are great, pretty much the best on the market
