Anybody have any experience with Imperial Oscillating Multi Tool Blades? They were reviewed in a FHB article a few years ago and were nothing special. A couple of local lumber yards carry Imperial blades and as these yards tend to cater to the pro trades I’m assuming they would generally carry higher end products. They are made in the USA, claim to use a higher grade of metal, etc. Just wondering if, from your experience, they perform that much better than other brands.

Use them a lot-they were the bargain b/4 Fein lowered their price. Good quality. A bit thicker, but manage the cut well.
i don't have an opinion yet on their Titanium style.
Imperial Oscillating Multi Tool Blade
Prior to my post I bought a Warrior brand diamond blade at HF for $15. It wasn't bad but it fell apart. The weld, between the part that attaches to the tool and the cutting part, failed. Glad it wasn't anything that was spinning. Had a lot of diamond grit left so HF refunded the purchase price. I bought the Imperial ($45)....no weld....one solid piece of metal. It has done the job. I guess you get what you pay for....also Imperial is made in the USA.
