    I wouldnt be using it for making any important or very detailed cuts,as it basicly a piece of shyte.The blade is absolutely useless and will either snap or fall to bits quite fast.

    But if its just for hacking something to bits,then for 26 cents then its ok.

    Very very cheap and cheerfull

    This 26c mini hack saw may cost you €100 in the long run when you end up in A&E with skinned knuckles after the blade shatters.

    You pay forr what you get, if you want to buy a hacksaw buy a real one.

    Rolson stuff is ok for light work, which is why it's cheap. I noticed identical stuff in TKMaxx, only it didn't have Rolson on it.

    I was assuming the blade would be complete rubbish, so for 26c I though the rest was still better than not having one (whcih I didn't).

    I bought the same piece last week. It's perfect for light hobby work... for eg. I used it to cut out part of the plastic frame on an xbox I'm modding.

    i wonder how tesco decide how they reduce things. There has been a good lot of threads on here lately about tesco reducing things right down but I've noticed most of them don't seem to be in any of the tescos near me anyways.
