    lenox sawzall blades

    Does anyone on here have experience using the different kinds of Lenox sawzall blades? I was wondering if there was a huge difference in the performance of the lenox gold vs the lenox lazer for cutting thin to heavy ferrous metal? I would also be occasionally cutting aluminum too.

    Cory Couch recommended these Milwaukee Torch Blades so I used them to cut down a heavy rack made of 2 x 1/4in thick angle iron...worked great, made a bunch of cuts and still has life left in it.

    I used to use Lennox blades when I "borrowed" them from a contractor I was working for. They worked great for me, but I mostly was cutting lumber. He used the 'wood with nails' ones. Lasted quite a long time too.

    I find the Lenox don't hold up as long as Milwaukee on cutting metal.

    I am currently using a Lennox 614R 14T 1.8mm BI Metal blade and have no complaints. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    The Lennox do not hold up as well as the Milwaukee brand. Our local Ace Hardware literally gave me close to 50 of them when they decided to pull them off the shelf. Now they only carry the house brand and Milwaukee.
