Replacing Blades

My work brings me into buildings where knives are not allowed, but where I still need to use tools on a frequent basis.

I’m looking for ideas on replacing the blade on lower-end models like Wingman and Rev with another item, or another creative and useful solution to making the tool bladeless.

You could replace it with a file from a Rebar.

The knifeless Rebar is an option.

This is my temporary solution. Dremel went through it like butter. Spark-y butter.

I know you are looking for a solution for the lower-end models, but Metropolicity is working on a pretty cool solution for a Wave. Maybe still worth a look: https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,83609.0.html

Maybe replace it with a strap cutter

use a side kick as your base platform, remove the blade, put in the scissors from a wing man. Or use a wingman as base and put in the saw from the side kick. Buy them used on secondary market to save some money?
