Light and powerful

Best saw I ever had, had to cut down the three and wanted to do carefully branch by branch. So it was so easy. Smaller branches cut without any effort. Supper light and good control with one hand. Totally worth the money. Recommend to everyone . This is the three I cut

Makita's Reciprocating Saw: A Symphony of Slicing Brilliance!

Oh, let me regale you with the epic tale of my encounter with the Makita Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Compact One-Handed Reciprocating Saw! This tool, my friends, is not just a saw; it's a magical wand that transforms mundane tasks into a whimsical journey of cutting delight.Firstly, let's talk about weight – or should I say, lack thereof? This saw is as light as a feather on a diet! I half-expected it to float away like a helium balloon when I first picked it up. It's like the unicorn of power tools, granting me the power to effortlessly wield it with the grace of a seasoned ninja.Maneuverability? It's like the Michael Jordan of the power tool world. I can practically dance around obstacles with this bad boy. I felt like a fencing maestro, gracefully parrying and thrusting my way through the toughest materials. PVC pipes quivered in fear as I approached, knowing their fate was sealed by the Makita's brushless brilliance.Now, let's discuss the cutting action – it's smoother than a jazz saxophonist sliding into a sultry riff. I sliced through pipes like a hot knife through butter, and PVC practically begged for mercy under the gentle touch of this reciprocating maestro. It's so smooth, I'm convinced it moonlights as a barber in its spare time.Battery life? It's like a marathon runner on an energy drink diet. I embarked on a cutting spree that would make Paul Bunyan blush, and the Makita didn't break a sweat. It's like the Energizer Bunny, but with more finesse and less drum-banging.And the noise! Or should I say lack thereof? This saw is quieter than a library during a power nap. I half-expected to hear a hushed "shhh" every time I revved it up. My neighbors probably thought I was practicing the art of silent sawing meditation.In conclusion, the Makita Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Compact One-Handed Reciprocating Saw is not just a tool; it's a symphony conductor orchestrating the most melodious cuts in the power tool repertoire. It's so good; I almost feel guilty not paying for tickets to watch its performance. Bravo, Makita, bravo!

This is a great tool for my immediate needs of pruning and rough wood working!

Having used this Makita 18V Brushless Recipro saw for a couple of hours at three different locations I am totally satisfied with the results. I considered a 6" chainsaw but it looked a bit unsafe for a first time user so I opted for this unit which appeared to be much safer, especially with the blade guide and loop-shaped handle guard. I never used more than 50% of my 5.0Ah battery during the two hours of use. It may not cut as fast as a chainsaw but I considered risk of safety vs. reward of quickness of time. The cuts were all very clean.SAFETY FIRST!!!I recommend that the user Remove the Battery prior to all Blade changes. Always wear gloves and eye protection.

I love this saw!!!

Just what you would expect from Makita!Strong, durable, and balanced. I use this mainly for PVC pipe cutting. It's cliche but it cuts like a hot knife through butter, lol.Just being able to have a free hand available while cutting is priceless. All of my 18v batteries fit perfectly. I'm tempted to by a spare since it was priced so we'll. Definitely a good investment!

A few irritating issues but I decided to keep the saw

I own a LOT of Makita battery tools. My old 21 year old battery Makita recip saw finally died.Changing battery powered tools manufacturers is expensive due to battery and charger cost so that was out.This new Makita arrived and I like the fact that it’s very light, compact and brushless. it does NOT come with a belt hook or a carry bag. I can’t even find a part number for the belt hook on the Makita site or Google.I located and bought a pair of ala carte Makita hooks from Amazon for $7 because I use the belt hook very frequently. It’s irritating that at $170 price point the hook isn’t included.The shoe around the blade is NOT removable or adjustable which is really lame.Sometimes the shoe is in the way of an obstruction, gets bent, damaged or lacks enough articulation and it needs to be removed or replaced. Not happening with this saw.Third, this thing is made in China. I checked around and almost every recip saw, even most of the fancy high end German recip saws are Chinese made.I located a nearly new corded Skilsaw 13 amp recip saw on eBay with a detachable foot and tool bag.So when I need light weight and speed of use, I have the Makita from Amazon and when I need a powerhouse recip saw, I have the Skilsaw “Buzzkill” model that cost me $50.But for $170, this Makita saw should be a LOT better.

My new favorite tool

This thing is just really handy. Basically, it's a powered jab saw, except it cuts wood and metal instead of drywall and it doesn't plunge. Much handier than a regular repo saw, and easier and safer than trying to use one one-handed. With a 5ah battery the balance is good.Someone mentioned that the foot didn't have much adjustment, but to me it's fine. I don't want a foot that's going to wobble around too much or worse, fall off. This one doesn't move much but it's not coming off. This isn't a precision woodworking tool...it's for construction or demo, or just when you need a one handed saw, and for all of those things it's very handy.
