Overview
A remodeler tearing out pipe, framing or old fixtures gets a corded reciprocating saw with a rubber handle and a brushless motor. A six inch wood cutting blade is the one included component.
A reciprocating action pushes and pulls the blade in a straight line, which suits demolition and rough cutting in tight spots. The corded motor avoids batteries. The listing mixes metal as the surface with a wood blade, so confirm blades before the job.
Who it's for
Demolition crews, plumbers and renovators cutting pipe, framing and old fixtures will use the straight push-pull action. Anyone needing precise finish cuts should use a different saw.
Pros and cons
- Brushless motor listed
- Rubber handle for vibration
- Corded power for long jobs
- Wood blade included
- Surface recommendation conflicts with blade
- Heavy for overhead work
- Needs an outlet or extension cord
- Tool-free blade change not described
Performance notes
A brushless motor and high amp rating keep the blade stroking under load. The rubber handle absorbs some vibration, which is substantial in a saw of this type. Cut quality depends mostly on the blade fitted.
