The BEST Jigsaw Blades Ever Made for Wood! May 09, 2000
By Al the Pal
"Al the Pal"
The title of this review says it all. These blades have a separate set of teeth that cut each side of the kerf. You can actually end up with cuts that don't need sanding! These cut through everything I have tried them on like butter. They are particularly good on plywood. I use them in my Bosch Jigsaw (see that review, also). I suppose they will fit other brands that have a bayonet mount. If you find a smoother cutting blade, let me know!

Excellent all rounder - even for hardwood May 25, 2004
By Tim
For the last 9 months I have been searching for a suitable blade for cutting 20mm Hardwood floors, usually Oak or Merbau. I require both a clean, splinter free cut for going across the grain but also a fast cutting blade for cutting along the grain, up to lengths of 2 metres. At last I have found one! The T234X is superb. It gives almost mitre saw quality cuts across the grain and cuts at great speed along the grain. I broke five "regular" Bosch blades this morning, I only used the one progressor this afternoon and it is still going strong. This is the only blade I will buy from now on, I recommend you try it too!

Cut quickly, Cut clean Jul 25, 2000
By Cliff Hutson
"The Marmot"
In my experience, this blade makes a fine, straight, usually splinter-free cut in thick and thin solid wood. I have used it on redwood and pine in various dimensions with great results. I have not personally used it on particleboard or plywood, but if Bosch says that it will work equally well on those, I will believe it. Buy a pack and try it for yourself.

Should be called the Superblade Jun 07, 2005
By R. Sultan
I got this blade as an extra blade when buying the Bosch T144D (which are also excellent). This blade provided smooth finishing to both the top and bottom of the wood and provided a excellent smooth and quick performance.
However I did come across one problem. Do not under any circumstance run this blade on chipboard, my uncle used this blade to cut the worktop (sink hole) and he managed to burn the blade. Looks like that the resin level in the chipboard doesn't allow this blade to cut as well as it normally does. Otherwise this blade is an excellent blade for all other types of wood that do not contain resin.

For cutting fast, not clean. Feb 26, 2009
By Erik H. Reppen
They do cut fairly clean but not so much on the scroll cuts. If you want cut something fast, however, these are an awesome deal at the clearance pricing I found them for. If Bosch labels it "clean" that's what you use when you don't want to do a lot of sanding afterwards. If it's labeled "progressor" it's for making two pieces where there was once only one ASAP.
There's a lot of positive talk about the new Xtra Clean T308B blades out there. I'll be reviewing them when my first set comes in. It's hard to find customer reviews though. People tend to stick to what they know, I suspect.
