Today, I went to Vegas, and while there, picked up the unique carport
stitcher screws I needed after not finding them anywhere else. ($.17 ea.
vs. $.04 for regulars on ebay)

Anyhoo, they had this video going for metal something cutoff blades. A
video of their production, use, etc. It has a simple name, metal something,
and I just knew I would remember it, but now can't. It was very
interesting, and they made saws to go with it that would keep up the torque
at the slow speed of a metal cutting blade.

I was going to write it down, but ....... I forgot my pen in the truck.

This getting old sucks.

Anyone know its name?

Sounds like the "Metal Devil":

There are others:

They've been on the market for a while, I suspect most of the name
brands now make them (dewalt, freud, ...). I think the last time
these came up for discussion a lot of people were recommending the
skil 77 and similar worm drive saws for these as being better able to
stand up to the abuse.

Others include Milwaukee, DeWalt, and Morse though I use a worm drive
saw rather than a dedicated unit.

It was the Morse Metal Devil. Looked impressive, but no doubt spendy.

The Medfords are less than I thought, at $180 for saw and blade. The Morse
Metal Devil is up there in cost, though.

Pretty cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmVNIIkqCBU
$179 is much better than the Metal Devil's $469 price.
