Pretty sweet. Haven’t used it to much to give a long term review

This is truly an innovative, well thought-out blade!I have been using multi-tools on drywall for years. Straight cuts are ok to do with standard blades. This blade has two narrow ‘horns’ one for pulling the blade, one for pushing it. I find both very useful depending on what kind of a cut is to be made (see examples in images). The shape allows for small features and curves to be cut. The pointy end allows for precise start of cuts for features like electrical boxes. There is also a coarse feature on the blade to use it as a rasp, very handy with a battery operated multi-tool, while fitting the drywall to the wall.This blade works more like a jig saw (note: reduce vibration speed to less than 10,000 per sec). As a consequence the back paper covering the drywall gets torn by the teeth, but this is not a significant drawback. I really like the ease and speed with which a feature can be cut using this blade – great!Also noteworthy: The universal mount is quite precise, I have a major brand and a low cost tool, the blade fits both arbors without any play.At this time I have on information on durability, after cutting out 1 box and 10″ round hole, the blade has not degraded

Using a vibration saw to cut through sheet rock makes less of a mess and is easier than a sheetrock saw. I have always thought that having a blade that angled a different direction would help cut easier. On traditional blades you have to angle it a certain way to cut through. This blade allows you to cut in 4 different angles. I used this to install an air vent and it worked like a charm. Cuts sheetrock with ease from all angles. I am glad to know that these are available. I will use these from now on.

Did not use it for what it was designed for but it worked amazingly well

This is a great blade for using on drywall. It snaps on to my brand of tool easily and quickly. It makes it easy to cut through drywall from different angles, which is great for cutting spaces for electrical boxes, etc. The depth gauge on the blade makes it really easy to manage how deep you are cutting so that you don’t cut too deep and damage the surface beneath.

The blade fits tightly on my Ridgid Jobmax Oscillating head and attached at 90° intervals. There was no ‘wiggle’ of the blade at all before or after use. The teeth were sharp and made nice clean cuts. The ‘push’ part of blade has a 90° corner and this was great for cutting square corner when trimming against 2×4. I got a very clean cut easily and quickly. No knife work was needed as the blade was very precise. I cut across the drywall with both the ‘push’ and ‘pull’ edges and got nice clean cuts between the studs. I used the ‘Pull’ side of the blade to cut vertical with a small curve and it cut cleanly and easily to shape. I played with the ‘shaver’ notches and cleaned up a rough edge of a piece of damaged drywall. I am very satisfied and highly recommend this blade for any drywall work.
