Klein Tools 725 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Klein 725 jab saw plunge through drywall without a pilot hole?
That's what the beveled, hardened point is for. You set the point on your mark, score, then push it straight through the board and start cutting. The flat end of the handle takes a palm strike if the board fights you. No drill, no pilot hole, no starter cut.
2) Can I cut an old-work outlet box opening with this, or do I need a rotary tool?
For a handful of boxes, the 725 is the faster answer. Trace the box, punch the point through at a corner, and cut the four sides. No cord, no dust cloud, no router bit wandering into a wire behind the board. A rotary cutout tool wins when you're doing dozens of openings a day or cutting to an existing box by feel; for service calls, panel access and one-off openings this is the tool electricians reach for.
3) Is 8 TPI right for cutting old plaster and lath, or just drywall?
8 teeth per inch is a coarse, aggressive spacing. It clears gypsum dust fast and it will chew wood lath, plywood and plastic, which is what the 725 is built for. What it won't do is leave a fine edge, so on a finish cut you'll want to cut slightly inside your line and rasp back. Hardened carbon steel teeth are not meant for masonry or plaster keys full of grit, and cutting into old hard plaster will dull them quickly.
4) Does the Klein 725 cut on the push stroke or the pull stroke?
Both. The teeth are ground to cut bi-directionally, so you keep material moving in each direction instead of lifting and resetting on every pull. Overhead and in a ceiling grid that matters, because you're not fighting the tool back to the top of the stroke.
5) Is the Klein 725 blade replaceable, or is it a fixed-blade jab saw?
Fixed. The 725 is a one-piece tool, blade into a reinforced handle, not a saw that takes interchangeable reciprocating blades. That's the tradeoff: nothing to loosen or rattle in a toolbag, but when the teeth are gone the saw is gone. If you want a handle that takes replaceable blades, that's a different style of jab saw.
6) What's the Klein part number for the 6-inch jab saw, and are there other versions to choose between?
Klein Tools model 725. It's a single configuration, no length or handle options to specify, so the part number is the whole order. Ordering by catalogue number 725 gets you the 6-inch hardened carbon steel jab saw and nothing else.
7) How much does the Klein 725 jab saw weigh and will it fit in a pouch?
0.31 pounds, and 12 inches long overall in a 1 x 1 inch cross section. It's light enough to live in a tool pouch or a bucket organizer all day, though at a foot long the handle will stand proud of most pouches, which is usually how you find it quickly.
8) We stock tools for a maintenance crew across several buildings. Is one jab saw model enough to standardize on for drywall work?
For general drywall and wallboard service work, yes. The 725 covers the same tasks across trades: outlet and switch openings for electrical, access holes for HVAC duct and low-voltage cable pulls, and patch cutouts during remodel. It also handles plywood and plastic, so it isn't a single-material tool. Where you'd add something else is fine finish cutting, where 8 TPI is too coarse, and any high-volume cutout work that justifies a powered tool.
