What are the longest blades that can be used with this saw?

I have a multi-blade set that has 10" and 12" blades, which work fine. I think you can feel safe to use whatever length blade is available, especially from Milwaukee. I think the limit will be what you are cutting. For really wide, hard materials (10" oak tree trunk) just take your time and don't overburden the saw. Let it do the job without overheating. You should be fine.

Please note Pastor Dan's response. I would think you are only limited to what lengths are available for purchase. The Milwaukee blades are the only ones I've used, & I've been completely satisfied with them.

Not sure if this is going to help you, but we've been using the 12" blades sold at Amazon to trim branches, and they've been perfect. So far, we haven't bent or broken a blade!

I can't see that there's any reason for a limit. The saw is just going to move the blade back and forth 3/4" on each stroke, no matter how far out the end might be. That said, I don't recall seeing blades outside the 6" to 12" range. Did you have something bigger in mind?

The largest I've tried were blade dimensions: 12.5 x 1.7 x 0.5 inches.You might want to call the companies customer support if you are hopingto use anything longer.

The max dado on this saw is 13/16". You will be OK with a 3/4" dado blade with a 1/6" to spare.

It takes standard blades but they are not "straight shank" you can get them wherever you get the "straight shank" type. I like them better. They stay in the saw better.

I have the Incra MITER1000SE. It fits the groove and works well. Most cuts I still use the miter gauge that comes with the saw though. The MITER1000SE is overkill I think.

If the blade works on it yes. However it's only going to cut so far into it. I'd be looking at a different type of saw if I was trying to do that.

Chop saws that can use a carbide blade seem to be specific. I wouldn't chance it even if you found one that fit

The saw blade is 3 feet long (also indicated in the product name). In my experience this is a very efficient saw and easy to handle by one or two people.

Any 10" blade will fit! You have to use an 8" Dado blade set. I love this saw, accuracy of cuts is exceptional.

You can use any blade you wish. The saw is designed to be used with any blade including dados if the proper cartridge is used.

The owner's manual notes that it takes a 92" blade, and those are very common--available in probably any home store. Buy the best one you can afford. It can handle blades in the range of 1/8" to 3/4" inch wide. The key is to know what you plan to use it for: wider blade (1/2" - 3/4") for re-sawing, mid-size (1/4" - 1/2") for routine work, and narrow (1/8" - 1/4") for fine scroll work. Note that you'll always buy a 92" blade, but the width will change based on your intended use.

Any 4" blade will work in the saw, best bet is probably eBay or specialty online stores.

That's beyond both my pay-grade and level of expertise. Mebbe Makita can answer, but a reciprocating saw with the wider variety of specialty blades would seem a good answer.

Yes, I use this blade on my Craftman tablesaw. But there may be some limitations using the maximum cut widths depending on the length of your mandrel and the power of your saw.

Dewalt DW7747 is a 14" 70 tooth carbide tip blade that fits most 14" saws. But like the other commenters said, the 3-4,000rpm makes using anything other than an abrasive blade incredibly dangerous.

A section of old hack saw blade will work well. If necessary one could use a knife if nothing else is available. I prefer not to use my knife in such a way.

I believe you are talking about a Coping Saw. Coping saws use 6.25" pinned end blades and these are 5" unpinned blades and would not work.

Depends on what you are cutting. Any standard reciprocating saw blades will work in this Bosch unit, you don't have to spend a ton of money. Again, it really depends on what your are cutting and the type of cut desired. Good luck.
