Recently needed to cut some cut out some 4X4 inch squares on cupboard doors for installing frosted glass. Wanted to ensure the blade I would use, would make cutting the squares quick and, easy. So I decided to buy these jig blades. Needless to say that yep, these work perfectly! High quality blades, they give you a variety of blades for cutting different sizes. And to cut either wood or metal! The blades are just the right thickness in my opinion too! Thick enough to be durable. Yet slim enough to get in smaller areas if need be to complete your DIY projects. They effortlessly snap/lock right in place. Easy to remove and switch out. Can easily recommend these to anyone needing to get jig saw blades. That want a fair price, good quality, reliability!

These are real Bosch blades and they work great in my jigsaw. Been using them for years now. They fit tight and have a slower dull out rate than the cheap blades, meaning they stay sharp longer and make great cuts. The trick to using these for me was to make sure to use the right kind of blade for the job. Here are the tips I use to make sure to get the best life, and best cuts from these blades. Pro-tips: 1. This may seem obvious but step one is to choose the right blade. A blade with less teeth and an aggressive pattern will cut larges chunks out of wood all at once and allow you to cut faster. This will be for a rough cut and may splinter a bit or show tear out. A greater number of teeth will cut slower and take out less wood at a time but make a cleaner cut, but you still may get some minor tear out but a lot less. For metal, choose the ones marked for metal and make sure to cut slow and steady. For plastic, you can use either blade really, but cut too slow and the plastic will melt, cut with too aggressive of a blade and you'll chip it. Choose one of the middle blades and get moving or else you'll melt it a little. 2. Choose the right speed. High speed on the saw is good for wood, and a low speed is good for metal when paired with the right blade. I go with medium speed for plastic. If I crank it too high it causes melting for sure. 3. Cutting style. With metal you can add oil or the like to keep it cooler while cutting and that helps. Metal teeth are no where near as aggressive and make a much cleaner cut but take your time and add lubricant to keep it cool while you cut. With wood don't add anything and don't dilly dally or you will burn the wood and heat up the blade unnecessarily so get moving but don't force it. 4. For fine or clean cutting one technique is to put masking tape on the area you are cutting and this helps reduce chipping and splintering on wood and this also works with plastic which is nice. Makes the cut cleaner and easier to sand and clean up the edges. I almost always do this. 5. Another technique for real thin stock, for vinyl flooring, or any plastic is to score the piece along the cut line before you cut. Make it a nice deep score with a razor blade or utility knife on the veneer side or the side you will see and this helps keep that cut real clean. Combine this with the above step and you'll get a super clean cut. The blades will snap and dull out quick if you use them incorrectly. Trying to do scrolling with a real aggressive blade or pushing it too hard/fast through metal or heating it up will cause them to snap. This will happen to ANY jigsaw blade and I found these to be more resilient then most, but not indestructible. BONUS TIP: If you are using a blade where the curve is in the wrong direction for what you need, meaning it will tend to splinter the top side (the side you will see) of the work product, turn the product over and cut from the back, or if you can't turn the jigsaw over and use it upside down. I've done this a few times and it really works! I hope this helped!

These are some great little blades, especially for the price. They are very easy to use, fit great, and cut through anything it’s made to cut through with ease.

I've only used one blade out of the set, one time so far and it seems to work fine. I hate doing reviews on something that I haven't used yet, because I think reviews are best after done after the item is used up, then you can say if it was good or bad. Well with that said, as a homeowner it will probably take many years before I use all 10 of these blades up, so at this point I can only guess how well these will work for me. So what I seen so far, my guess is that I'll get my money's worth out of this set, so I'm happy!

Have used these blades before. Good variety in this set and am pleased with the results.

Excellent price and perfect to fit in the DW331 case for use as needed. I flip the blades I have used upside down until they are dull then toss and use the next one. Working perfectly.

I have used cheapo jig saw blades for years and years, and I hve NEVER been satisfied with how a jig saw cuts. Always beveled cuts, never straight lines. I ALWAYS blamed it on operator error. Well recently my 15 year old jig saw fell apart (the abs housing gave way and the shoe plate fell off. My wife treated me to a new saw for Fathers Day and told me to order the one I wanted. I went cheap (BD JS660) but decided to order some good blades. Well these are the NUTS. Most Blades will cut wood pretty well, but there are clues as to how well. The most obvious to me is the leading edge of the cut. Cheap blades will have this little curl that leads the cut (not sure what it is called...kerf maybe?). Even a brand new out of the box blase does this (for me at least). Orbital-nonorbital-slow-fast it has always been there, until now. These blades cut AMZINGLY clean. No matter what the setting, no matter what the speed (within reason of course). Beautiful level straight cuts! I have not tried out the metal blades yet but I'm expecting the same great results.

Packaged very well and blades work as they should. Well worth the price
