I've tried milwaukee and diablo multitool blades, and in my experience, they don't last much longer than cheap ass amazon ones. Certainly not longer enough to justify the price difference
Not sure if you used on metal or wood, but I use them frequently and there is a dramatic difference between carbide Milwaukee vs say dremel.. dremel will go bald in a min while Milwaukee will not have taken and damage at all
@@tu1469I will stick to my 2$ bimetal blades and 50 cent wood blades. They might last a little less time but not by much. I use them doing hardwood floors every day.
Also HOW you use them. My cousin and I both used the milwuakee nitro blades at the same time from the same pack and three days later his is burned and missing teeth while mine looks almost new other than the missing paint. Using the right speed settings and giving the blade time to work makes a big difference
I switched to Diablo blades 3 years ago at the recommendation of my dad. 3 years later, I'm still using the same blades I bought back then for my circular saw, chop saw, jigsaw, and Sawzall.
Twitch is an understatement. Imagine how people would look at you if you said you just bought a new Lamborghini Dee-aye-Blow. They would very quickly go from oh wow to oh wow how'd this guy make it past the 3rd grade.
@@zaklion1440 I’m a carpenter you dingys. I’ve used these blades. They don’t last. The blade was incredibly dulled by the last 2 screws. Stay in your lane
That was exactly what I was thinking about, how much slower it was cutting after the last nail on to the screws and by the 2nd screw it seemed like the teeth were already worn off and he had to push through the Last two. But I will say one thing about this demonstration is that the battery life was good. It made me think that they were selling the tool, because it didn't slow down
Thanks for hitting them all on the same spot on the blade and not being phony by spreading it across unused portions of the blade or taking pauses for letting it cool down (heat ruins the temper of the metal and is a common cause of premature wear when cutting metal)
They cut way better if you move them. The teeth clog up and wear down in that spot. Better to move it and get done faster and save some blade. After one spot is wore out it sucks trying to plunge cut something.
To be fair you the left and right hand side of the blade would still be pretty new as the majority of the cutting was done with the middle of the blade
I go out of my way to avoid hitting nails or screws with oscillator blades, it doesn't matter if they're made with some fancy carbide unobtainium teeth, they just don't handle them well due to poor cutter geometry. The center of that blade is already toast just from hitting those three screws alone, it could have gone through a lot more nails but screws are an absolute no-no. You're better off with a Sawzall blade or a grinder, or better yet, just remove the screws if possible. There may be some situations where that isn't possible but that's like 1 in 100 instances.
Yeah only time I've been forced to use amultitool on screws is when a subdeck is screwed down into its support and then glue is used to hold the top to the deck and THEN i have to remove the supports/ top. Only happens like once every year
@histguy101 My Milly Blades worked for my garage/ basement renovations perfectly fine. I bought the trade-a-blades for the carpet underlay (the putty knife style blades) either way you look at it the blades in the video should've lasted longer. Plain and simple lol

It’s literally quicker to put your multi tool away, get an angle grinder out, put a new blade in that, cut all of the nails & screws, clean it & put it back in its case. But as it’s not about the tool, it’s all about the views/comments (which is why Diablo is “mispronounced”) I guess this short has served its purpose.
using a grinder in the same positions as you would often want to use a multitool would usually be very dangerous for a grinder wheel and could leak to the grinder wheel shattering
I usually attach them to the first set of holes so the blade sticks out father and that increases the side to side movement distance of oscillations. Basically, it cuts through stuff faster
It only worked at all because he was adding extra oscillations by moving the tool back and forth while it was operating. That's what made the difference.
I wish I had a similar blade on the job today. All the metal cutting blades were worn out and the only blade left in the tool trailer was a half-moon drywall blade which was worthless for any other use I had.
I think it's so funny when people use saws like this that they think they have to move it back and forth like that three or four stroke that you go back and forth with your hand made the difference 😁😁😁
I’ll try these multitool blades just like all the others I’ve tried but I usually go back to cheap bulk packs off Amazon because of the massive price differences and minimal performance improvements. I undercut dozens of door jambs and thresholds every year. Nothing so far has been a game changer in 20 years. But I’ll try these like the others. I use do use Diablo on my circular/chop/sawzall etc. jigsaw ehhhh. Bosch has always been the standard. I just started using Diablo jigsaw blades but can’t offer up enough experience yet.
Well boys, hate to break it to you, but I use these tools almost on a daily basis, haven't tried the Diablo carbide blades as of yet but I'm betting they're pretty much the same as Milwaukee carbide blades WHICH by The way are by FAR the best blades there are and I've used from Amazon bimetal trash to name brand titanium bimetal blades. You can takes these blades through 1/2" rebar and they're just getting started, now I'm not saying they're fast by any means, save that for 1/8" angle grinder wheels but I lay flooring and lots and lots of hard surface and use these to cut door jams, bymetal blades are well ok when you hit a couple nails in the jam or baseboard but the carbides are like a TIMEX WATCH, remember those, they TAKE A LICKIN AND KEEP ON TICKIN. the trick is to LET THEM CUT with as little pressure as possible working it back and forth slowly as to use the whole blade and not to overheat it in one spot which will significantly shorten any multi tool blade. I've cut several 3/8" and 1/2" rebar sticking up out of the floor. If they would come up with a blade that cuts steel and concrete/ceramic tile efficiently because the diamond blades don't work so well on ceramic. Maybe they do but I haven't seen it as of yet. NOW the carbides really don't work on metal industrial door casing like in a hospital ECT, but nails and screws you're good long as you use them the right way. DON'T expect them to be fast by forcing it through but expect them to work when used correctly and for a good bit of time. At $35-40 for two you might want to keep that in mind. Stay safe and God bless.
Harbor Freight blades are cheaper and just as good. I don't know about the carbide blades yet but wood and steel blades are great for a lot less money.
The reason I bought the milwaukee multi tool is because it can run cheap blades and I already had a lot of M18 batteries, I only buy brand blades for my bosch multi tool because there is no cheap starlock blades unfortunately.
In my experience the absolute best Multitool blades, jig saw, sawzall blades always come from small specialized manufacturers….they’re the only one es that justifies the price outside of that 10 blades for $20 from Amazon or harbor freight is better than 1 or 2 for $30 when the cheap ones last nearly as long and u get 10xsmore for less money….no brainer
unless the blades are made with diamond those teeth are getting chewed up quick. Use some diagonal cutters for nails or something like that, the multitool just isn't up for too much metal cutting even with the right blades
And just like that it was dull at the last screw
Hahaha😂😂😂😂
At start smart flush cuts towards end we all know it's de ablo to go! 🌪️
Lmbo 😂 don’t they all get like that no matter if it’s meant to cut metal or not?
thats awesome! now its just another $30 to cut the next nail!
😂😂😂😂

Shit was already slowing down by the second screw. And it makes my eye twitch when you pronounce Diablo like that.
My exact thoughts...
those screws r harder to cut through then the nails he is using u dingus
Twitch is an understatement. Imagine how people would look at you if you said you just bought a new Lamborghini Dee-aye-Blow. They would very quickly go from oh wow to oh wow how'd this guy make it past the 3rd grade.

Laughs in angle grinder

Fun fact about oscillating blades, they move so that your hand doesnt have to XD
When you cut metal you move the blade to distrubute the cutting to more teeth. If not there will be to much heat there will kill the blade.
They cut way better if you move them. The teeth clog up and wear down in that spot. Better to move it and get done faster and save some blade. After one spot is wore out it sucks trying to plunge cut something.
I was gona say. Let the damn tool do the work smh
Was gonna say the same thing 😂. Guy trying to increase the oscillations per minute by 100 😂.
@@user-ld6wo4rv8h it helps make them last longer and cut faster.
Well, what did the blade look like after the test? It would have been cool to hold it up to the camera so we could see it.
Right, wouldn't that be the point of a test like this and he doesn't even show us.
I think looking at the last cut on the screw, you don’t need that question answered. 😂😂
It was already dull by the end of the test?!
Yes
Yup
Yes
To be fair you the left and right hand side of the blade would still be pretty new as the majority of the cutting was done with the middle of the blade
Looked like it went blunt 😂
I know this is just a demonstration, but for exposed screws in most situation I feel like an angle grinder makes more sense

So a $20 blade is dull after six cuts? That’s about $3 per cut!
Yeah I can buy 20 blades that cut 1 screw each for that price lol
I mean.. 7 cuts then the center section was gone.. ill stick with the "Trade'A'Blade" from HomeHardware 😂😂
That doesn't happen with these. That happens to Milwaukee blades, though, like instantly
Carbide teeth will cut through the soft steel of the nails all day, but screws chew up the teeth very fast.

Junk

@@ToolReviewZone That still didn't answer the question tho ....
It's too expensive I'll be impressed when I can cut 40 or more nails with one blade at what price? lol!
Not what it’s made for. Do you use your good chisels on concrete and then ask why they’re so expensive and chip.
Use a grinder and a $1 cut off wheel.
I have used them to cut multiple pieces of 5/8 rebar in a pinch. Well worth the money LOL
Boy, that brass sure did dull that blade
Chuck Norris uses one just like this to shave every morning, lol!

It’s my favourite tool! Used for more things then I ever imagined.
Life saver 👍
I usually attach them to the first set of holes so the blade sticks out father and that increases the side to side movement distance of oscillations. Basically, it cuts through stuff faster
Now test it on some stainless steel deck screws. That’s the real test.
Probably one of the most useful tools I’ve ever owned.

It would have been more compelling to pull the blade up to the camera lens after the last cut so we can see the shape of the blade. Just saying 😁👍🏻

😎😎😎
Make sure you use the edge too and not just the middle. Saves the middle from burning out as fast
How many cuts before it becomes blunt ??
Deeayblo.... it's Deeahhblo....

Es útil en espacios muy reducidos donde no entra la amoladora o la segueta manual. En un caso como el del video prefiero una segueta manual.
How do you get them out now?
The last two were pretty hard I’d say it’s almost wore out
Should’ve showed us the blade at the end
Is Dyablo here in the room with us?
I want to see the blade when you were done.
It's pronounced dee-ah-blow as in "get me a Diablo sandwich and a Dr. Pepper. And make it snappy, I'm in a goddamn hurry!"
Cool!
What does the blade look like?
I hate to tell you this, but my Dremel can cut nails and screws with the approriate cutting wheel for a fraction of the price of a vibrating tool.
Why are you moving your hand side to side? Let's see the blade after cutting those, I'm curious about the wear after those few cuts.
unless the blades are made with diamond those teeth are getting chewed up quick. Use some diagonal cutters for nails or something like that, the multitool just isn't up for too much metal cutting even with the right blades
EZArc has been making carbide multi tool blades for years, same thing. Get 3 for the price of 1 Diablo
It’s obvious how many people here don’t actually use this tool on a job site. I’d be sold with just the three construction screws.
My preferred beard trimmer
Those are the only blades I buy but they don’t last all that long either when cutting a lot of nails or screws.
