User Comments about the Milwaukee 48-00-1301 Sawzall 9-Inch 5-Teeth per Inch Pruning Blade, 5-Pack

The blades are high quality, but are better suited to cutting branches 1" or larger that are not flexible. The blades are indeed very sharp, so handle carefully with gloves and don't store them loose in your sawzall case. Smaller flexible branches get caught between blade teeth.



And for this purpose it is fine. I recently purchased a Ryobi 18V reciprocating saw (the yellow one) to go along with my other One+ tools. I know it's not the most heavy weight tool, but I already have the batteries. After trying the wood blade that came with the saw, a white Milwaukee "Axe" blade and now these green Milwaukee pruning blades, I can say that these are noticeably better at cutting wiggly living tree branches: less vibration and faster cutting, which translates to fewer blisters and more trimmed branches.In general, I'm very satisfied. Regardless, I've mainly being using it to cut down scrub brush and pruning small trees on my property.



Cuts very slowly, much slower than a regular pruner or a chainsaw, and the cut is very jagged, which is a poor outcome for pruning, where a clean cut is important.



My Sawzall came to mind, so I found the largest tooth long blades that I had and went to work. I was cut just while opening the plastic container. First, they are very sharp, and the significant set and large teeth amplify this, so use gloves and care when handling the blades. I needed to do quite a bit of quick branch pruning before a renovation project could start, and the branches were too large for pruning shears and too small for my chain saw. It went pretty well, considering, but the blades would foul and tend to bind too often. Second, they cut green wood great, much easier than the other demolition blades I tried, and they have not fouled up on me at all.Now, what I want to know is: why am I suddenly doing all of this pruning. Still, the job was completed much faster than I expected.That evening, Amazon tempted me by showing me these blades, and I bought them.



Terrific idea for those of us that really don't want to work with a chainsaw. I just wish you made a longer version. Very little drag when cutting green wood.
