Pike Blades


Recommended Posts

Thought I'd start a new thread on small blades. Lots of good opinions. I have had these Pike blades for a long time used for cutting brass and steel. I ran accross them last night and tried them on the scroll saw today. Cutting 1/4" BB with no backer. They cut beautifully and are controllable at medium speeds. They are #2, not 2/0 but just #2 with 44 tpi. hey also seem to be a bit cheaper. I saw #2 at $22 per gross. The jeweler's blade sizes are designated differently than scrolling blades. They go from 8/0 with 84 tpi to #8 with 28 tpi. That's all I know about them. If anyone else has experience with these types of blades, join in.

I use the 2/0 ones of these for 1/8" bb almost exclusively.

They cut super tight areas but do leave a mess on the back because no reverse teeth.  No big deal as most of my stuff has a backer. I just sand the pieces which I would have done anyway. 

Cant beat the price. 

They do cut fine detail well. The price can't be beat and fuzzies are removed quickly with a flame. Don't know why these are not sold to the scrolling community as still another option. I still love my Pegas blades.

I also noticed that the name "Grobet" was on them. That's who makes the Pegas brand.
