 Does not fit "older" sawzall type tools.... May 9, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I gave this 1 star because I didn't get to actualy use this blade; it won't fit in my Porter Cable tool....read on for explanation.
I have an older model Porter Cable "sawzall" type tool [model 737] with it's "quick change" mechanism. Over the years, I have used various Milwaukee blades in this tool. I bought a set of these blades, item #48-00-5021, but found they wouldn't fit in my Porter Cable tool. I tried 3 of the 5 blades in the package. So I called "Milwaukee Tool..." and asked them if there was a manufacturing change. They confirmed the newer "AX" and "Torch" blade models are indeed thicker and will NOT fit some older models of not only their sawzall. They still offer for sale blades that are slightly thinner; so if you have an older recipricating saw, you'll probably need the Milwaukee blade model "48-00-5031". The "newer" blades are .062 thick; "older" blades are .050 thick.
 Thicker and stronger December 18, 2007
These blades are simply the best you can get bar none. You can do alot more work with your sawzall with these than you can with the cheaper blades because they last longer and are more resistant to bending.( a common occurance when making a plunge cut)As a result, you will spend less time changing blades and/or attempting to bend those cheap blades back into a useable shape.
These blades are standard issue with the milwaukee 11 amp orbital sawzall I just got. They also give you a blade called the torch, that is like the ax, except it cuts metal

I've been using The Ax blades while renovating buildings in France and take pleasure while zipping through 300 year old beams. The blades cut best with an orbital action, but still work well with a regular straight push-pull action. I've cut through 12" diameter Larch beams embedded with heavy square spikes, plenty of fir (sapin) structural wood, tons of soft and hardwood pallets, and lately Birch and Oak firewood. The only material that dulls them rapidly is brick, but even then, they do cut through brick! My consumption rate is about 4 blades per year of each of the 6", 9", and 12" sizes when not cutting through brick. These blades will cut through any wood framed building material and you don't have to worry about them bending over if you smash the tip into something solid. I'm convinced that you can also grind the teeth off them and make steak knife blades with them when they're dull, as described in a 1950's Popular Mechanics book using old hacksaw blades. Ironically, the Milwaukee 48-08-0401 Quik-Lok Job Saw would make a fine handle. Five stars all the way.
Very durable blades February 11, 2000

This is the toughest blade that I have come across. I work in plastics plant and we use sawzalls to cut up the nonconforming product to be reworked. I have tried several blades and they all bend and break. These blades are made from a thicker metal and can stand up to some real rough treatment. If you are hard on blades, these are the ones for you.
