About this product

The Saxton RPR10MX 10 Blade Reciprocating Sabre Saw Combo offers a versatile solution for a wide range of cutting tasks. This combo pack includes ten blades designed to tackle both wood and metal applications, providing a comprehensive toolset for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.

This set contains a selection of blades including three specifically engineered for high-performance wood cutting (R1021L), three suitable for wood and plastics with varying thicknesses (R644D), two precision blades ideal for cutting metal plates and pipes (R622BF) and two heavy-duty blades designed to cut through metal plates and solid pipes (R922BF). The universal 1/2-inch (13mm) shank ensures compatibility with numerous reciprocating saws, including those from Dewalt, Bosch, Makita and more.

The RPR10MX offers a substantial ten-blade collection, combining six blades optimized for wood cutting with four designed for metal applications.
