The new Spyder Tools Skeleton Jig Saw Blade looks unlike any other blade I’ve come across. The most obvious change from tradition is the parallelogram shaped notches cut into the center of the blade (someone go tell my geometry teacher that I actually used the word “parallelogram” in the real world!). Those notches allow for heat dissipation. A cooler blade results in less deflection and straighter cuts.
The rip cut, gill shaped teeth are less obvious at first glance, but certainly innovative nonetheless. The design makes for cleaner and more precise cuts. It also allows the blade to remove material on both the up and down strokes so they maintain constant contact with the wood.
The Spyder Tools Skeleton Blades are manufactured in Germany for use with wood. They are available in 10 or 12 TPI (teeth per inch) as well as T-shank or U-shank designs to match the connection your jig saw requires. They are good for hardwoods, softwoods, and wood based materials.
Spyder Tools Skeleton Blades are available at your local Lowe’s home improvement store. A package of two currently runs about $6. To check out the Skeleton Blades or any of Spyder Tools’ innovative accessories, check our their website by clicking here.
