X-ACTO Precision Razor Saw Set, Includes 2 Blades - Cuts Metal, Balsa Wood, and Plastic, For Delicate Sawing of Models and Railroad Tracks

Best craft knife money can buy. Great reputation. Sharp as heck, I can't count the number of times I've accidently cut myself. Great for any craft project, also suitable for minor surgical procedures. Remove your own appendix!

2 blades and a handle, all in that Universal size that fits any handle or blade made by others (like EXCEL.) The blades are very small toothed and do a good job cutting hardwood or plastic or copper, brass & aluminum (NOT steel!) It pays to take your time with these cuts and even scribe the cutting line on a piece of masking tape, placed first on the project. The blade is thin so it can distort slightly with pressure, so it's better to ease back on the saw and follow the cutting line by rotating the object rather than try to cut all the way through from one side. For example, cutting a plastic pipe at 90 degrees the incision will be more accurate and not require so much sanding or correction because the blade didn't go off at an angle. -But this is more for larger objects where a slight bending of the flexible blade can make a big difference in the cut. Just as a precaution keep your fingers away from where the sawblade might go. This is a wicked sharp blade that doesn't care what gets in the way!

Arived on time in retail package. The plastic was not fused together so you slide the backing out , love this packaging. It is a beneficial novelty other gurus should implement. The blades have 40 TPI and 42 TPI making them " fine" knife. I use it to make Marquette and inlays with exotic hardwoods. The wood is 1/42" thick without any backing a fine sharp blade cuts without leaving splinters, or chafe. One splinter and the piece is unusable. Smooth cuts on hardwood every time and accurate. The blade only cuts when pulling it and dosnt cut when pushing as designed. The bade has a reinforced spine so the thin blade resists bending and bowing - partly due to the pull cut. So all that is impressive but if you know marquet an 1/8" short cut and its a do over same with inla because it's repetitive the short cut miss cut turns into the grand Cannon. I did call customer service to verify the pull cut but " didn't have needed inuformatiin.". The Internet poodle fetched the answer. The best for last is the handle holds the blade wiggeling free-very important fo precise cutting. The bades chage out quickly. The price could be higher and the customer service needs training, however I will by more as they dull from the same retailer and same brand name .

Pretty much as expected, except 1 was suppose to be fine and 1 coarse cut, both have same teeth size and number, 1 has a 1/4" deeper cut, uses same handle that comes in the kit but cheaper to buy this way as apposed to just 2 single blades. meet my needs

After snapping open a few Bluetooth locator fobs to replace the batteries, I felt that these blades might do a cleaner job by cutting them rather than using the hammer and chisel they way I did the first dozen or so. The blades make quick work of these locator shells, slipping right into the groove of the untouched shell and cutting through the plastic with ease. The two images are the original Tile locators, which contain a 3v coin-size battery that is soldered or welded into place. I will be pulling those out and replacing them with a snap-in battery holder on the outside of the case so I can replace the battery every 18-months or so without opening the split case. I won't be putting that on the outside of anything, but there are plenty of opportunities to slip these into a side pocket of a suitcase, backpack, lunch box, camera case or other items you want to track. As I cut more old locators I get a little better with my technique, but from the first cut, I've found this X-Acto saw the perfect tool for the job! Even as prices on the locators come down, replacing the battery will always be cheaper than replacing an entire unit.

Works well for starting guitar nut slots before breaking out the files..

I have had one of these for years but lot it. I was delighted to see that they were still made. I was attempting to repair a decorative broken piece on a breakfront glass which required a precision cut with very small teeth as the piece was only about 3/8 wide and a foot long and had to be reglued at top and bottom. The small teeth and handle made it a snap to make the appropriate cut without any further damage or tear-out. The blade is made for small stuff and has a top edge for support. One still has to be careful NOT to use it for purposes it was not intended for as the blade could be bent if one is not careful.

Expected quality from X-acto. Use it for trimming balsa wood and other light woods in model building.

Very sharp and capable of super fine cuts in wood, plastic or soft metals.

Good shap blade and grip handle

Prima fijnbladige zaag. Uitermate geschikt voor modelbouw en ander precisiewerk. Maar pas op, woon je in de EU dan moet je inklaringskosten betalen a € 13,21 (in 2025) omdat het wordt verzonden vanuit de Verenigde Staten. En daar wordt helaas geen melding van gemaakt in de omschrijving/informatie. Dat maakt het, ondanks de gratis verzending, toch een duur fijn zaagje. Daarom 4 sterren i.p.v. 5.

Superb product, incredibly fine cut and kerf (the width of material that is removed) makes these perfect for scale modelling, cutting through plastics with ease and precision. I used the same X-Acto saw for many years and decided it was time for an update; I wasn't disappointed with these new blades and handle.

Sharp narrow kerf and straight.
