Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
It doesn't look like much, but take this little saw in hand and get to work, and you'll be as impressed as we are. First off, it's quality construction, everything from the comfortable, soft-grip handle to the same rugged, heavy-duty steel Quik-Lok clamp you'll find on Milwaukee's famous Sawzall recip saws. Blade change is as quick and easy as a twist of the thumb and index finger. The beauty of this little saw is that it will go anywhere and get into places a big, hungry recip saw can't. Just stock up on 1/2-inch tang recip saw blades and you'll be set. It's perfect for small cuts, delicate jobs and for the little tasks you don't want to haul your recip saw out for. Every homeowner and contractor ought to have one of these. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

5 out of 5 stars Perfect knife for the end of your sharky stick. For removal of high bandit signs.   July 31, 2008
Sign_Shark
This review is for anyone who wants to remove illegal signs placed high on poles:

This is the PERFECT tool to put on the end of your shark stick for removing illegal signs posted high up on poles. Add the Shur Line 06572L Easy Reach Extendable Pole and you're ready to go.

Shur Line 06572L Easy Reach Extendable Pole

It screws securely on the end of your telescoping pole. Give the tip a twist and insert the blade. Let go and the blade is secure. Give it another twist and the blade pops right out. The ultimate in convenience!

The blade that comes with it is all you need. It cuts right through corplast signs quickly and easily. (I would rather take a sign down by cutting rather than whacking anyway.)

If you like taking down signs, but always had trouble with the expo signs posted way up high (Gun Expo, Tattoo Expo, Reptile Expo, etc.), the extension pole and this knife is the ultimate combo for you! Those signs are mounted on wooden stakes and then are taped high up on poles. This cuts right through the tape and drops the signs in seconds! (Just be careful not to drop signs onto nearby cars, especially on windy days.)

Beautify your city. Help remove roadside street spam. This combo and a box cutter for low signs is all you need!



5 out of 5 stars Great little saw   June 29, 2008

Get one. Wish I would have purchased it when I got my super sawzall. They both use the same blades, and they have specialty blades for the job saw. Check it out.

There I was, looking around on Amazon for nothing in particular, and up pops this little baby. My boss (construction and demo) has a similar thing, but it's old and rickety and has a manual mechanism for locking the blades.

This thing has a nice weight to it, the nifty Quick-Lok Milwaukee key, and works quite well for small cuts in tight places, or for finishing the Sawzall cut when you want to avoid slicing into the electricity.

The handle has the ability to screw in a broom handle, but I think that'd be kind of silly unless you loan the tool to your grandpa so he can cut that sprig off his apple tree in the back yard.

This is one of those tools where the boss quietly looks at it without saying anything, and you know he secretly wants to hold it and have one for himself.

This saw is handier that what I was expecting. Will take standard reciprocating saw blades. Milwaukee also has a set of specialized blades for this saw. Great tool for the tool box.
