These blades get the job done. The selection will cover most projects and they fit well into standard reciprocating saws. I just started rebuilding a deck and I found the long one worked well for tearing off the old boards. The blade tore right through the nails and screws that were in the way. They did not bend as other brands have and held up to the demolition job.

This is a review of Milwaukee's Item #49-22-5505 5 pc carbide-tooth recip saw blades. Included in the kit are: 2 ea 9" 5 tpi wood [and cement board] blades; 2 ea 6" 7 tpi metal blades; and 1 9" 7 tpi metal blade. The metal blades are good for cutting soft steel up to 1/2" thick as well as stainless, cast iron. In the first week of use, I was very impressed how well the 9" 5 tpi "wood" blade did cutting through the dirt-embedded roots of a crepe myrtle ... I know I would have gone through dozens of those cheap 'pruning' all-steel blades. I also had no problems cutting through 4" ABS pipe with either of the 9" blades. I've used the 6" metal blades to hack through pig iron [gas line pipe] rather than beat myself up with a true pipecutter. At first I thought they were a little pricey, but they'll treat you well if you don't abuse them. The teeth aren't the most aggressive, but they'll last.

Great wood and metal cutting reciprocating saw blade set. The set includes 3 large blades (two wood and one thick metal) and two small blades (thick metal). There is no included case. The carbide teeth allow the blades to easily cut through wood and metal with ease. So far, the blades have worked great in my Milwaukee sawzall and the blades seem to be holding up well without any noticeable wear.

The Milwaukee SAWZALL blades comes with 2 blades that are made for nails in embedded wood, 1 blade for thick metal, as well as 2 shorter blades for thick metal. I used the blades in my Milwaukee reciprocating saw as well as my Craftsman and the blades worked fine in both. I have only had them a short time, but they seem like they are going to last a while.

I have burned through several reciprocating saw blades during my "heavy DIY" work I have been doing as part of a major home renovation. Part of that project has required several instances of cutting into wall studs and subfloors, of course which include framing nails. I had found that other brands of saw blades seem to be only good for a few uses, then they lose their cutting ability rather quickly. Anticipating this I liked that this product included several blades together. However, after a few uses of the wood blade, it still cuts rather well and seems to hold up better than other brands. I have yet to try the metal blades, but will likely use them to cut 1.5 inch EMT for my next electrical project. The blades will quickly look bad as they will lose the paint job on the surface, but they still work just fine.

I've used these Bi-Metal blades for a while now and they are really nice, I'm very happy with them! This set 49-22-1110) is a true bargain at under $15 and it comes with a case that can hold all 10 blades plus another 8 if needed. I was originally just going to get a few of the shorter blades as I only had the longer 12" Milwaukee blades, but this kit was so inexpensive that it was a no brainer! In the past I've used these for demo work and they last & last, the only thing that I found was they cannot bend as much as cheaper blades (those bend more than 30+ degrees). If you are trying to cut thru nail embedded wood, these wood blades are great for that! See in the pics below the aggressive teeth on the wood/nail blades and also the first tooth design (point) that makes it easier to plunge cut, very nice!. This set makes it so hand to grab the right blade, no more looking thru the bottom of the tool bag for 5 minutes for the right blade! LOL Blades included: (3) 6" Thin Metal cutting blades from 1/16"- 3 1/6" 24 TPI (3) 6" Metal cutting blades from 1/4"- 7/16" 14 TPI (1) 9" Metal cutting blade 18 TPI (1) 9" Wood/nail cutting blade 5 TPI (2) 6" Wood/nail cutting blades 5 TPI If you found this review helpful please check the box, thanks!

Nice assortment of blades for my new Recip. Saw.

These Milwaukee "Torch" Sawzall blades are much thicker than any of the other blades I have used, and they make short work of wood and metal. There is a nice assortment of blades for cutting metal (cast iron piping, for example) and wood with nails. The teeth are aggressive and the carbide tips mean that they'll stay sharp much longer than standard blades.
