Another example of the handle being stuck. Unusable.

Muito bom

Produit pratique avec les différentes fonctions. Quant au prix il est justifié, il faut mettre le prix quand on veut de la qualité

Unless the job is small, using a handsaw on anything these days is typically not a lot of fun. The DeWalt 5 in 1 hacksaw doesn't change that but, it does help you make the best of the situation. It does that by first, offering an amazingly rigid frame. It is not steel but it is very rigid in spite of the fact the front end hand grip is readily removable. Second, the blade tensioning mechanism was (I thought) a bit funky at first but given a few minutes of familiarization it as a very well designed aspect of the saw ... and it really is simple to use (once you get past its learning curve). With a high tension, sawing is made far more accurate and smooth. Next is the saw's versatility ... gee with 5 tools in one, that is a hard feature to beat. No need to repeat the product description here. I examined several hack saws at a local hardware store (at a higher and lower price point) before settling on a purchase. I wanted to handle the thing before I bought it. Well, the moment I picked up the DeWalt, I felt this is a surprisingly robust hand saw and the feel, heft, balance and overall impression sold me over others that are considered peer products and at a similar price point (or higher). One reviewer said he shaved off material to let the tensioning lock system operate more smoothly. I agree that the tensioning lock is tight but the saw is new, and I have the opinion it will loosen up naturally over time and with normal use. But I did add a small dab of some white lithium grease to smooth the process. The grease will not help it wear, but will help it operate more smoothly during the interim ... and it will do so without degrading the integrity of the tool. For those times I need to change the blade I will reach for a small screw driver to unlatch the lock mechanism Admittedly, I have used the saw only on limited applications at this time including such things as angle iron, PVC, and thin plywood ... all with excellent and precise results. I have not yet used it as a jab saw or the 45 degree option, but look forward to the opportunity to do so. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and wholeheartedly recommend this saw to anyone looking for a solid hacksaw with a great robust design, and optimum versatility.
