Tools and Hardware Reviews of DEWALT DW309K 11.8 Amp Heavy Duty Reciprocating Saw Kit

Customer Review: It's a BEAST (from one amateur's point of view)
Summary: 5 Stars

Okay, I'm no pro -- just a very enthusiastic amateur. On the other hand, since I have no idea what the correct way to use the saw is, I may well put it through a harder, albeit shorter and less frequent, workout than the pros do.

A couple comments:

If you need to pull the blade out of the cut before you've gone all the way through the material, be sure to let go of the trigger first, or this puppy will twist your blade into a fair imitation of a question mark.

As far as changing blades goes, I can't imagine anything easier. Just flip up the little lever, give the saw a tiny shake, and the old blade falls harmlessly to the ground. Shove in a new blade, push the lever back down, and it's off to the races again. I'm not really sure why anyone would *want* to touch the old blade -- gloves or no -- before it cools off, but I agree it would definitely be a hazard.

Sure, it vibrates like a Harley with a bad timing sprocket, but for this amateur that's part of the appeal -- i.e., when I fire that thing up I just KNOW I'm doing some really MANLY stuff! {g}

Great saw. Wish I had one of my very own.
