Cut the cord but keep the performance with this 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Recipro Saw from Makita. The BL Brushless motor matches torque and RPM to the application so you always have enough power for the job. The 1-1/4 in. stroke length increases cutting efficiency, and the crank mechanism design minimizes blade deflection while reducing vibration. Convenience features include an L.E.D. light to illuminate the line of cut, a retractable tool hook and tool-less blade change for faster blade installation and removal. The battery has a fast charge time so you spend more time working and less time waiting. Includes the tool only, battery and charger sold separately – this promotion includes a bonus lithium-ion 5.0 Ah battery.

Couldn’t recommend the 5.0 Ah batteries more. Although they are heavier- suck it up, it builds muscle ;). I love that I can count on the quick charge time and how long each battery lasts. Depending what tool, I can go 2-4 hours on one battery using constantly. I now have three of them and watch for deals. I couldn’t be happier.

Fantastic tool, very powerful, not too heavy, excellent for demo work. I’m invested in the whole Makita cordless system and have zero complaints so far.

I’ve been using it to dismantle 1/16” stainless tubing with carbide blades and it just eats. Also used to to turn a geo metro into a convertible and the geo stood no chance. This saw was a great buy.

Used this for heavy demolition, cutting through 6×6 pressure treated wood, pruning trees, and cutting through metal pipes with no issues. It’s light, very smooth motor, and very little vibration. Switching out blades is super easy and I really like the rafter hook which stays in place securely when folded down and doesn’t get in the way. I never had a cordless reciprocating saw so I can’t compare battery life to other brands, but other than the heavy demo where it was worked VERY hard for a solid 30 minutes, my 4Ah batter never ran dry. I should note that the battery had 3 out of 4 bars on when I began the heavy demo.

It has so much power and last so long, of course it is new. But my son has Makita and they have worked good for him for a long time, that’s why I switched to Makita.

Built in light, brushless motor, easy toolless blade change. 2 speeds. Seems to be on par with other Makita cordless tools. Time and use will be the best test.
