Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Incredible MXZ Pocket Saw - As Seen on TVCustomer Review: Satisfied Skeptic Summary: 5 StarsLike most MXZ owners, I originally saw the product on an annoying infomercial. While I would never purchase it via phone or mail order, I stumbled across the MXZ at a retail store and decided I could spare the $12. At the time I didn't have a particular use for the MXZ but thought it would be nice tool to have around in case I needed to cut through hard material. I have been very happy with purchase as the MXZ has turned out to be quite handy.
About a year after my purchase, I needed to cut heat-sinking vents through a relatively thick conical aluminum reflector. It turned out that the MXZ was perfect for the job. Basically, the tungsten carbide particles on the MXZ's blade are ideal for cutting through irregular shapes or extremely hard materials. Because as the tungsten carbide grains have an omni-directional cutting ability, the blade doesn't slide right to left or bounce along the surface -- unlike a hacksaw. Additionally, the stability of the cutting motion is improved by the relatively small particles.
Other than the relatively soft aluminum reflector, I have used the MXZ to cut wood and hardened steel. Clearly there are better tools to cut either, such as a wood saw or bolt cutters, but nothing is an all-around multi-purpose saw like this.
On my hardened steel cut test, I tried to cut through an inexpensive combination Master lock. It took about five minutes to cut half way through. Of course, bolt cutters would have been much faster but that isn't the point. The MXZ was convenient.
For the price, the MXZ is a good value. The solid construction is impressive at this price point. The handle is a relatively heavy cast metal while the blade is very stiff, as it needs to be. So far, none of the tungsten carbide has appeared to have chipped away from the underlying steel blade.
Overall, the MXZ is unique saw that is inexpensive, versatile and compact. It would make a great gift and so, I plan to purchase a few of these for stocking stuffers at Christmas time.
