Had I known that they would come up with oscillating tool that does more than this Bosch for less money, wouldn't have looked at this garbage. An absolute waste of money. In addition, the balde on this Bosch wears faster than any blade.
The door then closed perfectly with no air gap. It is the only saw that would make a straight cut right up against the door frame and door entrance sill.When the door was installed the door sill was off set, on one end, about 1/4" and the door would not close completely. I purchased this saw blade as well as the Bosch flush cut-off saw.Together they worked out very well. Insects, rain, and wind would enter the base edge of the door. Customer was happy and so was I with this easy purchase via Amazon.com. Customer complained to me about it from time to time then I found this tool on Amazon.com that did the job instantly and provided a straight cut across the door sill and the door frame.
They have fine teeth, which makes for a smooth, but annoyingly slow cut. E.g., cutting off the bottom of door trim, to make room for ceramic tile. If they lasted longer, they'd deserve 4 or 5 stars.Here's a tip to cutting the bottom of door trim. This makes their initial high cost downright exorbitant. Bosch FS200ABU 7-7/8-Inch 20 Teeth per Inch High Alloy Steel Flush Cutting Fine Tooth Power Handsaw BladeI've used these blades for numerous construction projects with a Bosch 1640 saw. Next time, I'll get the blades with more teeth per inch, which cut faster. To cleanly remove 1/2" of trim, lay a 1/2" piece of plywood on the floor next to the trim, and let the saw blade slide on the plywood as you cut. The biggest con with these 20 teeth-per-inch blades is they wear out way too fast.
Very clean cuts, no sanding needed to dress up edges. Start your cut with this blade and if you hit a nail switch to the "regular" blade. It seemed to cut the nails quicker and didn't get dulled as badly. I used it to cut door jams for a flooring project. Like another reviewer said, it's a good idea to have a spare on hand, it gets dulled pretty badly when you hit the hidden nails. You'll still have a nice clean cut. Easy to attach/detach/swap sides.After some trial and error, I used the "regular" (not fine tooth) blade to finish the cut when I hit a nail.
Great accessory for the Bosch 1640VS power saw, makes really smooth cuts. I used mine new for cutting door frames, smooth as silk.
