I only hope that the Fein company reads all of the comments about price. I checked Home Depot and found that they stocked a similar tool made by Bosh A great tool but the price of the blades is too high. Since there are other manufacturers of this type of tool I think that they are going to lose a share of the market.
I'm thankful for the use but at the price of the replacement blades it should be told that these do not wear well. Multi tool usage although handy is expensive when replacing blades so often. I currently use the E blade on many unusual tasks during a Victorian restoration. Oak studs, large spike nails or the old antique square nail will wear down the blade fast.
With all of the remodeling that I am doing, I can't live without these blades. These are great for cutting into 2x4 studs, since they can cut both metal and wood. They get those hidden nails and make removing small or rotten sections of wood easy.
It says it can cut metals. But after one cutting one thin piece of metal, you are done with this blade.
These blades are very expensive and will hopefully go down inprice when the patent expires and there are other bi-metal blades available. I use it because currently it is the only bi-metal blade available for cuttting metal (i.e. Product works well with the Fein. Basically it is a hacksaw blade. nails, metal studs, wire,.).
