About this deal

As with most cutting tools, the type of blade you use is possibly the most important factor in how efficient your cuts will be. Whether cutting curves or lines with a jigsaw, ensuring you have the right blade for the application is essential for making clean, safe, and effective cuts. Specific materials require different types of jigsaw blades, including those with varying tooth pitches, sizes, and orientations. For example, blades with fine teeth are ideal for cutting metal, while those with larger teeth are more suitable for wood. Having the right blade for the material you’re working on will always ensure for maximum cutting performance.

The extra width on the blades (which contributes to their strength and rigidity) also means you’re not going to be cutting ultra-tight radius curves. I made up for that by starting my cuts from multiple locations on the outside of the piece and essentially carving some space for the blade to pivot. This took a little longer, but then this wasn’t your grandma’s typical thin plywood jigsaw cut. Not too shabby for a jigsaw blade – this shot is before sanding to smooth out the cut Annoying really,as i came up with this today when I'm nearly done with insulating my barn conversion roof(between and under rafters),but it works brilliantly for me. Took it to my bench grinder, ground all the teeth off,and created a bevel on both sides so it was sharp like a knife..and gave it a try.... Amazingly, several minutes and a fair bit of sawdust later, I appeared to have two decent looking corbels. Did the long blades deflect and wander a bit? Sure. But they did so far less than I expected. These Bosch extra long jigsaw blades aren’t accessories you’re likely to use every day, however they can come in very handy for particular projects where you need a little more fine control than your reciprocating saw delivers. In addition to the the wood blade we tested, there’s also a metal devouring blade that can munch right through a sandwich of light metal. Pricing and Where to Buy
