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.
Still, the job was completed much faster than I expected.That evening, Amazon tempted me by showing me these blades, and I bought them. 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. First, they are very sharp, and the significant set and large teeth amplify this, so use gloves and care when handling the blades. My Sawzall came to mind, so I found the largest tooth long blades that I had and went to work. It went pretty well, considering, but the blades would foul and tend to bind too often. I was cut just while opening the plastic container. 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.
Terrific idea for those of us that really don't want to work with a chainsaw. Very little drag when cutting green wood. I just wish you made a longer version.
Have used these blades for mostly trimming pine branches and dead brush up to 4" in diameter(haven't tried anything bigger). Works even better with a sawzall that has a selectable orbital action like the smaller Milwaukee 6514-21 Hatchet. Great for breaking up brush that you're going to burn at the campfire instead of trying to break with hands and feet or dealing with rearranging half burnt over sized wood.
These blades are great for any type of wood. As long as the branch/wood isn't overly flexible, they will cut it. Tough Milwaukee quality. Makes backyard work a breeze.
