Metal cutting reciprocal saw blades

I have a cheap reciprocal saw from Harbor Freight, that actually works, and would like to know what good blades are out there to cut metal. Cutting sockets (see "welding sockets" post) was a miserable experience, the blade dulled, and I had to switch to a hacksaw with bimetal blades, which did the job. That same reciprocal saw did a just fine job at cutting mild steel tube (muffler), but apparently the blades are not hard enough for alloys. So. I suppose that I should look for bimetal blades for the reciprocal saw as well, any suggestions for a brand etc?

If you can't find the Lennox brand blades (probably the best), the Milwaukee brand "Torch" blades work well.
