Review on πŸ”§ Durable and Versatile DEWALT Jigsaw Blades Set - T-Shank, 14-Piece + Case by Rafael Lewis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice case with some finishing

I bought this blade and case set based on other positive reviews as I needed a good case. The processing of the case seems to be good. The lids have a steel hinge pin instead of a plastic one, a pleasant surprise. The lids close with latches that slide TOO easily, IMHO. For example, there's no positive click or pop at the closed end of the stroke, and it seems like they could easily hit or collide in the open position. I ended up taking a soldering iron and used it to "sink down" the plastic on the lid so that it offered some resistance to the latch as it was slid to the open position (see photo). It didn't take long to swap out the latches so I could trust them to stay closed. Suitcase dimensions: 2 1/8" wide, 1 1/4" thick and 6 1/4" long, or the compartment measures approximately 5 1/8" long, 1/2" wide, 3/8" "+ deep. Body construction: The yellow part is ABS, the latches are PP, and I'm not sure what plastic the lids are made of. made of. Pros: Well built body and metal pivot. Cons: Sloppy slide closures, I expected more from DeWalt.

Pros
  • Solid finish
Cons
