You have not expeienced hole saw nirvana until you use a Lenox carbide tipped one.

Expensive, yes. But if you make money using a hole saw, you better check them out.

As far as Bi-metal blades for both metal and wood,I feel that Lenox,Morse and Milwaukee are all about the same in quality and longevity. The old Milwaukee dark blue bi-metals were the best though-almost indestructable.I don't know why they quit making them,but I haven't been able to find them for a couple of years.Maybe they were just too good?
