Can anyone point me in the direction of some good multi tool blades? I've went through a couple of packs of Erbauer ones and not been that impressed with them although this might be me expecting too much from them.

Any other brands to try?

I too went through the erbaure and toolden /duotool cheap tat. Lasted minutes

I bought a Bosch at short notice for an urgent job and found they last 10+ times longer.

Since then I've not looked back and just buy bosch - they are also more tolerant of sharpening without softening through excess heat the steel. -but that said they are still not as good second time round but gets the job finished without the trek to town

Just be sure to purchase the right. Blade profile for the task.

Which multi tool blade can you sharpen?  I thought they were all a bit too fine toothed?

Thanks, didn't know that existed. I guess you need one for each each teeth spacing on your blades.  I'll nose further and see what's around

I just buy non branded packs of 50 from ebay for around 15-20 quid ish. I've tried a few brands, and they're all just as bad, in my experience!

I buy all my blades from Saxton Blades. I fit kitchens for a living. ( allegedly)

Saxton "stuff" is very good, screw driver bits last ages.

What are you cutting?

When cutting wood-based stuff, it's really important to withdraw the blade off and on to let the chippings clear. Otherwise the tooth gullets fill and you get burning and then the blade is knacked.
