    Fien and Bosch blades are pricey especially now they both have the starlock system and no blade last very long so cheaper the better
    8 quid and upwards for a branded blade can go into silly money when it's something you use regularly

    I use Bosch because i like the curved blade, especially if I'm cutting something like a kitchen end panel

    Use cheap ones, if you spend big money on them you feel reluctant to change it to early. Then there always a chance of nipping something that blunts it almost instantly and then blade is ruined. Use cheap ones, change often and you always have a sharp blade to deal with the job. My 2 cents lol

    I'm with Glenn on this one, went down the root of buying branded ones that ended up expensive in the long run so buy them in bulk off fleebay now.

    Branded multi tool blades are the biggest rip off going. There worth about 5p and selling for £10-£15 per blade. It’s should really be a crime to sell fein and Bosch blades. Get them cheap as possible

    I've got a fein 18v cordless, had it about 6 or 7years, gets loads of use, just had one repair (was a circuit board or something),expensive tool, but it's paid for itself. Don't like the Fein blades though

    HI Paul, yes I've used a Bepo a few times, far quicker than using a multi tool to cut lots of door frames and cleaner if under cutting kitchen end panels or oak frames. As for multi tool blades, I get them from Shark Blades as the price seems fair and quality is good.

    They're great for when you're working in an older house and you know there are going to be lots of nails in the frames

    Hahahaha. Only work for myself. Just got the starlock fein and didn’t realise that all blades wouldn’t fit. So looking for a cheaper alternative to the fein blades. Had a look on eBay and a lot claim to fit the starlock fein
