Which are portable handles and blades last a long time and separate easily (unless you leave in the rain!).

But it looks like somebody already had the same idea and saved me a good bit of effort.

I can't tell you how many times I've poked myself in the hand with my jab saw while reaching for something else. I like this because I can take the blade off and store it in the handle.

I have a cheapy store band version of this thats need a screwdriver to change blades. I am assuming the twist knob in the middle is used for tool-less blade changing. I like the blade storage and choice of blade positions, I'd almost shell out $15 rather than paying $4 for the store brand one again. How do you change blades?

I think I got it free with purchase of a Bosch jig saw. Very useful. Takes jig saw blades and reciprocating saw blades. I’ve had this saw for over 10 years.
