This review is from: Black & Decker 74-591 Large Wood Cutting Blade for SC500 Navigator Powered Handsaw with Jigsaw (Tools & Home Improvement)

My motivation for buying the Navigator was to use it with various blades to cut 4" pvc pipe, tree limbs, etc. instead of using handsaws. It does all of this fairly well, but it would perform much better if B&D came out with a wider assortment of blades. At just 3.4 amps, this saw is not overly well powered and thus it should have an assortment of blades available so as to maximize the efficiency of the cutting action.

The wide woodcutting blade listed here has teeth that are fairly fine - which is good for precise cuts in material such as pvc pipe and lumber, but not so good when cutting tree limbs or any other situation where you want an agressive cut. In my opinion B&D needs to come up with some more blade options for cutting wood!

After using the wood cutting blade I found it to be very usefull in not only cutting 2'x 4's but have also used it for cutting branches. It's long lasting feature is a plus.

The available blades for the Black & Decker Navigator electric handsaw are ok for the applications that these blades are designed for, but for heavy-duty cutting more aggressive blades are needed--especially for cutting thick tree trunks & limbs. It would help greatly if the Navigator were redesigned to allow using commonly available saber-saw blades.
