A hacksaw cuts metal, plastic, and other materials. The tensioned blade is replaceable and available with fine teeth for smooth cuts in hard materials and coarser teeth for faster cuts in softer materials. This Nicholson model accepts a range of blade lengths and configures as a traditional hacksaw, a low-profile hacksaw for close-quarters work, and a jab saw for making cuts in drywall.
