Copper and aluminum are soft metals. The blade is going to last a long time. Stainless steel and harden metals not as long. I use mine on all sorts of different materials and I get at least a year out of each blade. **Q: Starrett green stripe vs Starrett red stripe blades? What is the difference?** A: I had no clue, so I googled it & this is what I found. Greenstripe® These hardened-milled tooth blades are shatter resistant and are the best blade for interrupted cuts or when the blade is subject to excessive stresses. Redstripe® Constructed of uniformly hardened high speed steel, these blades maintain their cutting edge on the most difficult to cut materials, held securely. Bluestripe® These precision ground tooth blades have a patented solid-state diffusion process which produces the industry's most advanced bi-metal hand hacksaw. **Q: How well would this cut an aluminum hand guard on a paintball marker?** A: I've cut through steel with these blades. As long as the metal on the hand guard is not thinner than 1/32", and the correct technique is used, there should be no problem. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***O on 15 June 2021* If you are going to cut Carbon Steerer's or seat posts, make sure to order extras.
