Pike Swiss Brand Jeweler's Sawblades 144 2/0 by Pike

I bought these blades to try on my scroll saw for making jigsaw puzzles. At the price I thought what the heck. They actually worked good, I was surprised after reading so many articles saying don't use jewelers blades they won't work. I'm not sure what the actual spec are except 2/0, but I counted around 30tpi so you will get more fine dust. The kerf is minimal, they make nice tight turns. They do wear down faster than a good puzzle blade on 1/4", but for me they are a good value for the money. If you can't get your hands on some good puzzle blades give them a try.

If you didn’t laugh at that please leave.Okay, now that everyone is gone, here’s what I mean by my title. I have used many, many, different blades in my work, most recently Rio’s Lazer Gold blades, but preferably Nano blades by Pepe Jewelry supply websites usually have terrible shipping rates, making the purchase of single items (such as saw blades) fairly prohibitive, so I usually wait to buy them when I have to purchase other things, hence why I was stuck with Lazer blades. This time around, I needed blades and nothing else, and I needed them fast, which led me here. The reviews are mixed, but still high enough to give them a try ($15 for 144 blades is also good price, especially if they are GOOD blades). After using them for about a week, I can confidently say, these will be the blades I go to from now on. I have used about three blades so far, only needing to replace them due to dulling, which is probably a record for me. Yes, if you’re breaking blades, it’s your technique (as the person below me so NICELY stated), but the quality of the blade plays a huge role. No one is going to saw perfectly, and if your blade isn’t forgiving, no matter how good your technique is, you will break blades, especially if piercing isn’t a large part of your art.Which leads me to why I like these so much. They are easily the most forgiving blades I have ever used, there have been times where I was in shock that the blade didn’t break. I thought this would mean faster dulling, but I have only (quickly) dulled a blade when cutting 8mm copper round stock, which is NOT what these are intended for. I have gotten a very long lifespan when piercing gold and silver (even significantly thicker than recommended for a #2 blade).I also appreciate that they come in a small, paper package, unlike Rio who uses more plastic than any company I have ever seen.

This blades are very strong

Great blades.

Calidad suiza a buen precio

Best jewelers saw blades I've ever used. Smooth cut.These blades were recommended to me by a master silversmith and they have made work much easier

These blades work real well. The cut through metal without breakage and minimal lubricator! They are a great price and would heartily recommend them

I bought a jeweler's saw and it came with a bunch of sawblades. They would break really easily and made cutting difficult. These blades are much better and I'm able to cut more efficiently and without needing to change the blades too often.
