How do you tell when a Sawzall blade is worn out? I have a blade
I've been using in my Sawzall for a couple of years to cut tree limbs.
It has probably cut 50-75 3-5 inch Magnolia tree limbs. Today I was
trying to cut a shrub with a base of about 6". The cut went
v-e-r-r-r-r-r-y slowly and it smoked while cutting this green wood.
But, it still looks and feels as sharp as a brand new blade with the
same tooth count.

Are you for real? If you can't tell, you have no business having a saw in
your hands.
