Bahco 268 Mini Hacksaw, 150mm Blade , Red

I was fed up using the old bent frame junior hacksaws and at increasing risk of damaging myself when removing and inserting blades. Found this by chance and it makes it so much easier. Will most likely buy a spare for when I inevitably lose it.

Great little tool, provides a straight cut, no deviation as with cheaper models

Bahco quality pistol grip handle which I prefer

it is good

Nice sturdy mini hacksaw that gets the job done well. Good solid strokes thanks to comfy ergonomic handle you can get a decent grip on. Also holds the blade properly - no twisting or popping out under pressure. And it does not have those crappy plastic blade holders that break after 5 minutes use!

So... you could argue that this junior hacksaw is nearly twice the price of the old-fashioned ten-a-penny bent wire ones... but it's all a case of perspective and true value!!! (I haven't been incentivised to review this by the way!) The truth is that this saw is only £2 or £3 more than the crappy ones and it a million times better. Firstly, the handle is actually comfortable to hold and keeps your hand in the right orientation to get neat cuts. Secondly, the stronger frame keeps the tension on the blade (which can be adjusted by the thumbwheel) so you don't get the blade popping out or blade wandering through the workpiece. Thirdly, the blade it comes with seems much better than your run-of-the-mill variety. It's tough, durable, well designed and well worth the extra couple of quid! Don't waste your time or money with the others!

You can buy cheap Junior Hacksaws but Bahco is for life. I have many Bahco tools including those over 40 years old.

I live bahco tools, I’m gradually replacing/updating my full toolkit to be bahco. Great quality and design.

Por ahora la he probado pocas veces, pero ajusta bien la sierra, es muy cómoda y parece de calidad. Veremos lo que dura.

Very sturdy and well designed, high quality tool. Great price as well. As I suspected, the blade length is 12", not 15" as the description said.

This is my second Bahco tool I've purchased, ironically, the second hacksaw. I'm a fan. The quality is great, and the pricing is reasonable for such a quality tool. Highly recommended.

Cette petite scie est épatante, de bonne facture, solide, Bahco est une marque de référence et c'est un bel objet. Mais l'essentiel n'est pas là car elle est très pratique et maniable, elle autorise des coupes précises, fluides et rapides, sans sortir l'artillerie lourde d'un plus gros modèle. Idéale pour les petits travaux dans le bois ou le métal doux.

Altamente recomendable, muy buena calidad, una sierra para toda la vida.
