Bosch OSC114C Carbide Multi-Tool Blade

One of the biggest complaints with oscillating tools is that the cutting blades wear out too quickly. Bosch is looking to change that with its new OSC114C Carbide Multi-Tool Blade, which is designed to last 30 times longer than standard bi-metal blades. The durable carbide teeth can cut through fiberboard, cement board, sheet metal, and pipe. They can also handle nail-riddled wood, so you won’t have to toss blades every time you brush up against hidden fasteners. Price: $22. COO: Switzerland. 877.267.2499. boschtools.com.
