The Big Kahuna power blade from Ideal Industries Inc. is a professional tool engineered for demanding usage. Its steel blades are hardened through a proprietary heat-treating method for strength and durability. Although replaceable, the blades are designed to last for thousands of cuts on 1250 MCM aluminum or copper cables, leaving a clean cut. Maintenance is as simple as lubricating the blades with light cutting oil, officials say. The gearbox is sealed and lubricated, so it will not require maintenance for the life of the tool, the company added.
