These are excellent blades, a good general use selection and at the sale price I paid a very good buy.

Excellent blades!

Each blade type cuts very quickly, yet smoothly. They also stay sharp through many cuts. These are the best jigsaw blades that I have used and are definitely worth the price.

Almost Perfect!

The other reviews have the count of blades correct . . . Tool Crib are you listening . . . put it in the main description!!
My only complaint is that these ship in a ziplock back with no padding to protect the blades, they are not carded like the 3, 4 and 5 packs. So, by the time they get to you will have rubbed together enough to have lost a little of their paint, and thus you may have trouble for example telling the T118A from the T118B. I'm also afraid of what this may have done to the blade tips themselves . . but can see no problems.

The Swiss Make Great Knives, and Jig Saw Blades

This is a review I wrote for the 30 pack of woodworking blades. Since it applies as well to the assorted 30 pack for metal and woodworking, I thought I would submit it as well. Here it is:
On the side of these blades is imprinted "Bosch" and "Swiss Made" (for Bosch) These blades are scary sharp. The instructions tell you to wear gloves when installing them. My ego told me different, so I skipped the gloves. One of the blades touched, or should I say just glanced lightly against my finger, and my skin immediately created a fine shred. Oops. Now I wear gloves. These things are definitely sharp. I don't have another blade in any category that are as sharp as these. Exercise caution when using them. Of course this makes for a great jig saw blade. They effortlessly go through material. With three different levels of coarseness, you can meet any task. The 30 pack has ten of each, coarse, medium and fine. The assorted pack gives you metal and woodworking blades. See item description.
With a 4x8 leftover edge of a piece of plywood as my guide, I used the jig saw to cut an edge on a piece of MDF. It was so smooth and even, that I only touched it lightly with a sanding block and 120 grit to produce a factory edge. That is saying something for a jig saw.
I am using these on a Bosch jig saw, that I can not say enough about. These blades work well, I understand, on any jig saw that takes the T-blade style.
You can't beat the price. Everything is cheaper by the dozen. The 30 pack enables you to buy a blade that is way sharper and resilient than any other jig saw blade I have ever used, and at a price that can't be beat.
I bought the Bosch metal cutting blades for the jig saw as well. Jig saw blades are something that needs to be renewed due to the unusual material and positions we put them through, so you might as well buy a pack and save the money. Just be sure and wear some gloves when changing them, or concentrate on only touching the back edge.

A very good assortment!

Need a Jig-saw blade? This pack from Bosch has blades for almost any need. Smooth cutting and so far, very sturdy. I have no regrets with this purchase.

Includes 30-Piece T-shank Contract Set - T30C, (10) 4" 10 TPI Jig Saw Blades - T101B, (5) 4" 5-6 TPI Jig Saw Blades - T101D, (5) 4" 5-6 TPI Jig Saw Blades - T144D, (5) 3-5/8" 17-24 TPI Jig Saw Blades - T118A, (5) 3-5/8" 11-14 TPI Jig Saw Blades - T118B.

Good for most, but not all, applications.

This is a good assortment of blades from Bosch. They are quite sharp and last a good long time under most conditions. My only disappointment was that there were no thin blades for very tight shape cutting. For tight cutting find blades by another manufacturer or get a scroll saw. At about a buck a blade, the 30 pack is a good deal though.

Here's what you get....

No, you don't get the blades shown in the picture. All the blades are, however, Bosch. You get 10 clean-cutting blades for wood/plastic (T101B), 10 fast-cutting blades for wood/plastic (T101D) and 10 rough-cutting blades for wood (T144D). These are quality blades but not stamped with the "Progressor" trademark. You be the judge of whether this offer is a value after shipping costs.
