Know y'all are getting sick of all the carpentry questions.....but at least it's not gun posts anyhow what's eveyone favorite blades for sawzall/recip saw ? Got one the other day for some odd cuts I was doing with a hand saw , but these harbor freight blades just ain't doin it with these treated 2x4's so what are the pros liking ?

Diablo

X2. And then Dewalt..cheap don't last unless your doing a cheap one off job. Quality lasts and therefore it costs.

Sarge

Treated lumber is wet and don't cut good and clean

Be careful when buying things like Sawzall blades, and DeWalt and other batteries off of places like Amazon. The knock-off brands make their labeling look very similar to the name brand. Read the reviews; they are junk, don't be tempted.

Use Dewalt...Need to look into Diablo though.

Milwaukee, Ax or Demo

Diablo , Milwaukee are good. Irwin , a lower cost but still decent.

Having a good selection of tooth sizes , length and different purposes are worth having too.


Here is an oddball one I have , just for drywall.

The way it works is to just push it into the drywall to start , it will cut in any direction and sorta has concealed teeth and a purposely short length to keep you away from hidden electrical or plumbing.

Very true. Lots of fakes out there. China copies everything with no regard to copyright law.

I also buy Diablo

The free blades I bring home from work !

Diablo or Milwaukee rescue.

Milwaukee and Diablo most of the time.

Lennox used to make a good blade but haven't used them in a while.

They even intentionally put up blurry pictures to trick you into thinking they are showing the name brand. Your brain knows the name brand and fills in the missing data.

Keith

Diablo or Milwaukee are what I prefer. Lennox if you can find them.

Lennox. I try not to use a Sawzall any more than I have to. There are usually better options like a circular saw.

Alrighty thanks everyone picke duo some Diablo's when I was getting material and they work MUCH better for the cuts I need !

Look into a "pruning " blade.
