A high-value bulk pack of durable bi-metal blades for anyone who burns through utility blades on drywall and boxes.

Pros

  • Bi-metal build flexes instead of snapping, so tips do not shatter under side load
  • IRWIN rates the edge to last roughly 3x a standard carbon blade
  • 100-pack with dispenser drives cost down to pennies per blade for high-volume work

Cons

  • Standard 2-notch shape does not fit snap-off or hook-blade knives
  • Straight edge is wrong for cutting shingles, where a hook blade is safer
  • Loose 100-count blades are a storage and safety hazard without the dispenser
