Having to remove some 40 year old shrubs from the ground, I found that using a Bosch Brick blade to cut through the roots in the stony clay soil worked successfully and it didn't lose its edge as a normal steel blade would. I did wince a bit at the £20 price tag, but it was worth it.
What are these like for cutting bricks? I've often wondered about buying one but the price has put me off.
For brick cutting I always use a diamond saw and water. Bricks vary tremendously in hardness. London stocks or commons would cut with this blade, but a very hard second stock Surrey would be very slow.
