This is a jab saw designed for cutting openings in drywall, wood, plastic and metal, including the hard-to-reach cuts where a full-size saw will not fit. Klein model 31757 ships with four replaceable blades and folds closed for storage and transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe blade lineup is what makes it multi-purpose. Klein includes blades at 6, 8, 10\/14 and 24 TPI (teeth per inch). The coarse blades clear drywall and wood fast for box and fixture cutouts; the fine 24 TPI blade is the one to reach for on metal and plastic, where a coarse tooth chatters and grabs. The blades are bi-metal and alloy steel, up to 6\" (15.2 cm) long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eBecause the blades are reciprocating saw-compatible, replacements are easy to source and a tool-free blade lock makes the swap quick on the job. That also means you are not locked into a proprietary blade when one wears out or breaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eDual locking positions set this apart from a fixed jab saw. At 180 degrees the blade extends straight out for full reach into a wall cavity. At 125 degrees it locks at an angle, which gives you clearance for your knuckles when you are cutting close to a stud, a ceiling, or the back of a cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe handle is plastic, aluminum and rubber with an overmolded grip shaped to fit the hand, plus a flat, cushioned base designed for palming. That base lets you push a penetration cut through drywall with the heel of your hand while keeping control. Overall length is about 11-7\/8\" (30.2 cm) with a 7-1\/8\" (18.1 cm) handle, and the saw weighs 8.7 oz (247 g).\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eWho should buy it: electricians cutting in old-work boxes, low-voltage installers, plumbers and HVAC techs opening walls for access, remodelers, and DIYers who want one compact saw that covers drywall and the occasional pipe or trim cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails id=\"product-benefits\" class=\"acc\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMatch the Blade to the
