Are you serious?

They have lesser price tags than other blades in the market. I got them from xxxxxxxxx.com. I always get discounts on volume purchases plus fast shipping. I guess nothing tops my source for blades so far!
I have seen similar posts by you on PM regarding band saw blades as well...

Are you looking for blades, or advertising by asking, and then conveniently posting a link to where you "found" them? :wink:

There is a specfic forum here for "commercial Advertisements" that you are welcome to post in anytime.

Operating machines is perfectly safe......until you forget how dangerous it really is!

WalMart. While you are there, grab some Scope to cover your breath, it smells like spam. :mrgreen:

Ahhhhh yes.... Horror Freight hacksaw blades.....
Made of an exclusive carbon-steel and peanut-butter alloy.....
Might be some jelly in them too.....

Years ago, I bought my youngest son a HF tool set. Primarily....to keep him outa my stuff....and I figured I wouldn't be out much if he left 'em out all over...like he did with my Proto, Craftsman & Snap On. The sockets, wrenches, & screwdrivers....notso bad. And he still has most of 'em. Pliers.... OK if you didn't use 'em.
The hacksaw, and the dozen blades that came with it.......you should not be able to tie a knot in a hacksaw blade....

The ones I had you could definitely not tie a knot in them-they were more prone to shatter like glass if you pushed a little too hard... :) They would either explode on the first couple strokes, or actually work for a while...
That was one of the first things I ever bought from HF, back when they were just sending out little mimeographed flyers.

Yep! I do.
However, not because I'm gunning for you. I read ALL posts, and pay particular attention to those from folks I like. I happen to like you, and that's fact! :wink:

Heh! There are many who would argue that notion. Even me. If I'm so damned smart, why do I moderate this board? :lol:
