I use this to cut my wood down to the right size for my smoker. It works great and helps me keep my cooks at a constant temp.

First off let me say that I changed the 6″ one for a 9″ one because I had to go deep into the ground to cut a Robelini stump out. Cuts really aggressive, made easy work of it.

This is a big blade, and is definitely well built. I have a set of wood and metal recip blades from Milwaukee that have been great, so this is a great addition to that. For quick pruning or just to get a branch out of the way, the sawzall is a quick and easy tool to use. Having a nice, large pruning blade is something you should have just for that task. This has made quick work of branches with little effort.

Why should I bother with these? You don’t accept any that aren’t complementary or sarcastic. In this case, you ask for a review the moment I receive an item, and its the middle of the winter and want a review of a summer time product.

This blade gives the homeowner one more reason to keep a Sawzall nearby. The blade is thick, sturdy ans will cut green wood better than any pruning hand saw. There is always some low hanging bushes and limbs around my back deck. Rather than getting out the chainsaw ( which usually does not crank easy), I just get the Sawzall, plug in a 100 foot extension cord , and manicure the large shrubbery. I have also cut new wet treated wood with no problem.

A great blade to help convert your reciprocating saw into a pruning machine. Excellent for cutting through branches or the occasional Christmas tree trunk.

The Milwaukee 9 inch carbide sawzall blade exceeded my expectations and make quick work of my last yard project for the season. A few summers ago I had 3 mature trees (Spruce and 2 cedars) taken down and was left with I unsightly stumps and huge roots that that started to effect my fence. I attached this blade to my Ryobi reciprocating saw and went to work. The blade can go into the earth and easily severed the roots. I was concerned the most with the old cedars, but the blade easily made the cuts.

The word pruning sold me on this blade. I have these small trees growing out of my house Rockwall and they’re just a pain to trim. with this pruning blade on a cordless sawsall I cut it all the way into the rock so that stump should not grow back again Otherwise I would never have tried that blade. “Pruning

The Milwaulee 12 inch pruning sawzall blade is a quality made blade. Thick and sturdy for cutting any tree or bush branch. It will withstand any type of tree species and make many quick cuts. Roots are no problem either. The blade will tackle any rock or dirt when you are cutting roots. Only con is that it is a very aggressive tooth blade. Made in USA.

It’s long enough for most limbs with a profile that cuts pretty well. It works excellent on tree and bush large and small branches. On palms, it gets caught in the hairs of the frawns.

This blade kicks butt! I used it to remove roots from a cypress tree.

Adding this blade to your Milwaukee Sawzall turns it into a tool that will outperform a chainsaw, that can cut almost any branch in seconds.

I like this saw blade. It cuts through branches really easily, and has plenty of length to cut just about anything I want to with it. While the length of this blade is a benefit, it can also get in the way of things. One potential use case for the recip blade would be to cut roots, but with the longer blade, I found it difficult to avoid getting the blade in the dirt. Milwaukee does make this blade in slightly shorter variants, though, and even after getting the blade a bit dirty, it still was sharp to the touch. One thing with a long blade that I would worry about is potential flex/bending of the blade. I found it to be very sturdy, though; I was not worried it would get caught and bend at all.While I did not attempt to cut an 11-12″ tree with this so far, I’m very satisfied with this saw blade and the results I’ve seen so far. It can cut through a 3-4″ branch in very short order using my little Ryobi 18v recip saw.
