Fein nail cutting blade [Posted on 2006-08-10]
I'm a high end cabinet installer/fabricator who runs into a different set of problems on every job. I don't use the Fein tool daily, but it often proves to be a big time saver. The "flush cut blade", although expensive, usually stays on the tool - it cuts the occasional nail fine, but dulls on hardened assembly screws. (Since it's circular, you just rotate to a different spot until you've worn out the blade).
One complaint - I've had two blades overheat and crack when used as a jamb saw in toght quarters on hardwood, even keeping the blade in motion. Admittedly this was with minutes of full depth cutting.
The metal-cutting E-cut blades are also good - but, same problem hitting screws.

too expensive [Posted on 2006-09-24]
i have been use Fein's for over 5 years, every time I have to buy new blade, I am so unhappy to pay that high price. Now I only use Fein's tool in emergence, to avoid spend too much money on Blades.Very nice tool for professional installler, but I wont pay any more money to buy any Blades.

Flush cut bit for undercutting door frames [Posted on 2007-03-17]
I have been doing a lot of new flooring lately (hardwood, laminate)as a remodeling contractor and undercutting door casement and frames was a pain doing with a flush cutting hand saw. I have been looking at the Fein as a neat tool to have but could never really justify the cost. But with the time I have invested lately, I decided to take the plunge. I just did a flooring job a couple of days ago and had to undercut 4 doors in a small area. With this blade and a piece of the flooring as a spacer, I completed all four door in less than 20 minutes. The other bonus is how clean the cut was. The cut looks like it was cut on a power miter saw and installed that way.

Useful but Pricey [Posted on 2007-06-27]
The Fein tool and associated blades are invaluable for those specialized tasks that no other tool really does well, as advertised. I used this blade to cut out an extra 1/4" of space around an expensive hardwood floor that was expanding more than anticipated with the humidity. Try doing that with any other tool without damaging the walls, which in my case included travertine around a curved bar.

However, the blades wear out quickly and are very expensive. It is too bad Fein won't make them out of bi-metal, or lower their price point. They are missing a much bigger market out there, in my opinion. Use them when you must, but only when you must.
