Review on Olson BM82164BL BI Metal 0.025 Inch 2 Inch: High Quality Performance and Durability by Scott King

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not what I ordered but will keep anyway

The saw blade was the right size and design but the number of teeth on the blade was not as advertised and it wasn't what i ordered. The bandsaw blade I ordered was bi-metal, 64.5" long, 0.5" wide, 0.025" thick with 10/14 VARI TPI. /14 VARI The interesting part was that the identifying information on the blade's packaging said the TPI listed as 14/18V and as you can see in the picture there was another sticker on the box identifying the blade as 10/14 VARI TPI I called the Olson Saw Company about this and they told me that according to the product number (BM82264BL) on the box it is a 14/18V TPI blade and not the 10/14 VARI blade listed on the attached sticker I don't know who is confusing this I can not rating it for value for money, durability or longevity because I'm just starting to use it, but I know it doesn't work well on aluminum because the number of teeth is too large and it closes with a notch.

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • A price that will break a piggy bank
