Review on πŸ”ͺ Norske Tools NCSBP208 5-3/8 inch Metal Cutting Saw Blade for Steel Roofing, Metal Siding, Steel Pipe, Steel Studs & More - Includes 2 Bushings (5/8 inch to 10mm & 5/8 inch to 1/2 inch) by Albert Wallin

Confound. Will not cut steel pipe or bolts more than once.

Although this blade was designed to cut steel, it will not cut tough steel more than once. While the blade feels solid (e.g. teeth don't break, don't warp, good thorn), it's not worth spending money on if you're looking for long-term use. Advertising is misleading. The description on the Amazon page says it will cut "steel roofing, metal siding, steel tubing, steel studs". The back of the box says it is not to be used to cut metal. The blade itself is marked "for cutting mild steel, sheet metal and very thin material". So, Norske, which ones? It certainly will not cut a steel pipe or steel bolt in more than one pass. The blade imprint is probably true, but I can get the same effect with my all-purpose blade. I doubt I can return it as the first and only cut dulled the blade to the point of being unusable. Dissatisfied.
