Re: reciprocating saw blades
I use a Clarke saw (http://www.clarketooling.co.uk/tools/info_159.html) with cut down regular hacksaw blades, I just cut to the length that suits the task in hand. Using regular bi-metal blades I find little or no difference compared to using the original blades, apart from cost of course

Re: reciprocating saw blades
Hello,
I use a similar saw,
and for fine work, these are good at the price..
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SIG-Flexi-Air ... 1c2dfd676a" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The more TPI (teeth per inch), the finer and slower the cut, and the thinner the material to cut.
Hope this helps..
