Cutting Action
-
A reciprocating saw uses push and pull action to cut. They are available in small, portable sizes to large electric powered sizes and are all variable speed saws. The push and pull cutting action enables users to brace themselves against the object being cut creating resistance to the action, which improves its efficiency.
Blades
-
The reciprocating saw, sometimes called a recipro saw or saws-all, is able to cut through thin and thick material alike. The blades used for cutting are designed specifically to what is being cut and come in different lengths.
-
Light or Heavy Duty
-
Choose the saw according to the need. Light-duty saws work well for do-it-yourself homeowners who only use one on rare occasions. For the homeowner who trims branches and other heavy-duty cuts, a comparison of the features available on different models is a good course of action.
