A hacksaw includes a handle defining a pocket shaped to receive a hacksaw blade without a tang and a reciprocating blade that having a tang and a hole. The hacksaw further includes a support arm extending from the handle and a clamp mechanism coupled to the support arm and configured to hold the hacksaw blade or the reciprocating blade depending on which blade is coupled to the handle.

A hacksaw multitool is provided. The device includes an elongated body having a first end opposite a second end. A bit receptacle is disposed within the first end. A plurality of interchangeable bits is removably securable within the bit receptacle. A channel is disposed within an upper side of the elongated body, wherein an arm is pivotally affixed within the channel at a proximal end of the arm. A saw blade is pivotally affixed to a distal end of the arm, wherein the saw blade is slidably engaged with the channel. The saw blade is selectively movable between a deployed position and a stowed position via actuation of the arm. The saw blade is disposed perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the elongated body when in the deployed position and the saw blade is disposed entirely within the channel when in the stowed position.

A hacksaw may include a blade support frame, a handle operably coupled to the blade support frame at a first end of the blade support frame, a movable blade engagement assembly and a multi-function fixed blade engagement assembly. The multi-function fixed blade engagement assembly may be disposed at a second end of the blade support frame. The multi-function fixed blade engagement assembly may include a first clamping structure to affix a first end of a blade to the hacksaw via an engagement pin and a second clamping structure to affix a portion of the blade spaced apart from the first end to the hacksaw via a clamping or pinching force exerted on the portion of the blade. The movable blade engagement assembly may be operably coupled to the handle and to a second end of the blade. Tension on the blade may be adjustable by adjustment of the movable blade engagement assembly.

A tool includes a housing, a blade receptacle within the housing configured to receive a removable saw blade having a lock engaging region, and a blade release actuator adjacent to the blade receptacle, the blade release actuator being rotatable about an axis associated therewith and configured to selectively move a lock member into the lock engaging region. The blade release actuator comprises a ramp on which the lock member rests. Rotation of the blade release actuator rotates the ramp under the lock member from a blade locked position where the lock member is pushed by the ramp into the lock engaging region of the removable saw blade to a blade release position where the ramp is rotated to create a gap between the lock engaging region and the blade release actuator such that the saw blade is removable from the tool.

An assembly of saw handle and saw member is provided. An end portion of the saw member is inserted into an inserting groove of the saw handle. The saw handle has stopping bars at an inserting portion and a swing arm. The end portion defines an opened hole and a closed hole. When the swing arm is moved to an eject position and not received in a receiving space of a guard portion of the saw handle, the saw member is not blocked by the swing arm and is allowed to be inserted into the inserting groove. After the saw member is inserted into the inserting groove and the swing arm is moved to a fix position, the stopping bars are respectively located in the opened hole and the closed hole, so that the saw member can be assembled with the saw handle in a convenient and rapid manner.
