Does it take both 10-inch and 12-inch blades?

Yes. The adjustable frame accepts 10-inch and 12-inch hacksaw blades, and a 12-inch blade comes installed.

It is recommended for glass, hardened steel and other hard materials, plus common metal stock like pipe and rod.

Yes, one 12-inch blade is fitted at the factory. No spare blades are included.

Is it ready to use out of the box?

Yes. The blade is already installed, so you can cut as soon as you unpack it.

How does it compare with a fixed-frame hacksaw?

Our take on the Hyper Tough 12-inch Adjustable Frame Hacksaw

The Hyper Tough 43261 is a hand hacksaw with a steel frame that adjusts to take either 10-inch or 12-inch blades. It ships with a 12-inch blade already fitted, so it is ready to cut metal, hardened steel and similar hard materials out of the box. Its main draw is the adjustable frame, which lets one saw cover two blade lengths; fixed-frame hacksaws at the budget end of the market take a single size. Owners rate it well overall, and the usual complaints are about the blade and the frame's rigidity rather than the concept.
