Makita Cordless Reciprocating Saw

Makita Reciprocating Saw Buying Guide

Sometimes called sabre saw, Makita reciprocating saws are handheld electric power tools used when crowbars and hammers can’t do the job. In essence, this heavy-duty tool is for demolition, and it’s particularly effective for ripping doors and windows out of walls. If you’re renovating a room or demolishing a structure, the Makita reciprocating saw could turn out to be your best friend.

How Does the Makita Cordless Reciprocating Saw Work?

The blade in a Makita cordless reciprocating saw moves forwards and backwards at speed — in a similar fashion to the jigsaw. Combining a sharp blade and brute force, this highly effective tool can tear through wood and plasterboard with ease.

Because the Makita 18v reciprocating saw doesn’t have a flat base, you can use it to access the more awkward and out-of-the-way areas. You can control the cut by choosing the right blade and adjusting the foot by sliding it up or down. And to help you see what you’re doing in dark areas, there’s usually an LED light.
