What are the Best Reciprocating Saw Blades for Wood?

The best sawzall blades for wood have a more aggressive tooth pitch of 6-10 TPI that can easily cut though nail embedded wood, 6"x 6" posts, and small tree limbs. A combination blade with 5/8 TPI or 10/14 also works on wood. The blade can vary from 6" to 12" in length. It's a good rule of thumb that as you go up in length you should also also go up in thickness to reduce the chance of bending the blade. For example, a 6" 6 TPI .035 blade would work well. A 9" blade should be thicker to resist bending, so a .042 or .050 would be preferable. With a 12” blade, .050 or .062 would be a good choice. For the best brand of wood cutting blade, we think MK Morse takes the prize.
