Hello,
This is not a review of the product per say, but a note to others: These blades will not fit the harbor freight multi tool. I tried because I was told by a H.F. sales person that they would. These blades will fit in a Fenn tool, or so I read.

I bought these additional blades to supplement the ones that came with my Dremel Multi-Max that my wife bought me for my June birthday. The tool itslef is outstanding! While not as large and "industrial" as the Rockewell or Fein models (which cost a lot more), for a homeowner who also volunteers as a Habitat builder, the tool is as versatile and effective as it claims. The blades themselves are fine. However, it's obvious at this price they are not made of Titanium! The original combo wood/metal cutter became too dull to use after cutting through a few dozen mid-size nails. It would be nice if the manufaturer offered a more durable (even if more expensive) set of blades. However, I am completely satisfied with the tool and this set of replacement blades.

I used the Dremel (Bosch) multimax on a finishing job in a bedroom and two walk-in closets. It made cut-ins under the door casings a dream: no false cuts, no mess, using the new flooring as a leveling guide. When I needed to do some butchery on interior closet walls to straighten bowed 2 x 4 king posts, I removed sections of drywall with the semi-circular drywall cutter: minimum dust, straight cuts, preserving the removed piece of drywall to reposition after the surgery was complete and the wall straightened. To remove old mastic from the flange-sides of access panels, I used the scraper blade: it lifted the old mastic beautifully without gouging or scoring the plastic.

Only problem I encountered was keeping the detent bolt tight: the vibration seemed to shake it loose, especially when used for cutting wood. One must check it frequently for tightness, keeping the Allen wrench at hand.

The replacement cutters are available at Amazon. They seem a bit pricey, but are competitive with other manufacturers' products.

This seems like a pretty good deal on these. If you have used these Dremel blades then you probably know they don't seem to last all that long. They cut well at first and then they start to burn. Make sure you don't hit any plaster or drywall with your new wood blade. At a package price of about 7 bucks a blade you save a bit over buying them individually.

The Dremel saw is one of the handiest tools I have ever had. Why did it take so long come up with this idea? I gave them as Christmas gifts and I tell everyone about how they will do things faster and easaier than the old methods.

Bought the rebuilt multimax. First time I ever bought a rebuilt tool. looks and works just like new. should have bought one of these sooner.

These attachments are great! The dremel is awesome and so useful. These attachments are for typical drywall and wood cuts. The one also does metal, which is great in case you hit an unknown nail in the wall. Used them so many times and still going. Barely worn down yet.

This is a really great tool. Was surprised on how easy it was to use. It has allowed me to undertake task I would have never attempted before.

They work fine, for a Dremel. The tool is useful, as are the blades, but only for very specific projects. The cost of the blades makes regular use of the tool prohibitive.
