I just want to know if i can use the thin metal blade for cutting off ac ends? Blades dont really tell what u can cut with them just shows angle metal ugh.

With a reciprocating saw large teeth are used on most nonferrous and fine teeth for steel. Lennox is the most common brand I use based on price and longevity. Being lazy sometimes I just use my grinder with a cut off wheel (I will be trying a diamond wheel in the near future based on the recommendations here) or even my skill saw with a metal wheel.

I do not know how you can get anything done with all the safety equipment you wear, have to put on and off, and keep track of. I am more of a minimalist. More on this in another thread.

I find using leather gloves and being old enough to require glasses to do most any close up work takes care of my safety needs. 73, Mike
