Choosing a Sawzall Blade When selecting a Sawzall blade, first consider your project. Each Sawzall blade style has a series of icons on its packaging -- and these icons demonstrate the materials which the blades are best-suited to cut. There's a separate icon for a variety of materials, including wood, plastics, wood with nails, and metal.
Next, decide on the proper blade shape to suit your project. Sloped blades are best for plunge cutting, straight blades are ideal for edge cutting, and scroll blades are used for cutting curved or circular shapes.
Finally, be sure to pick a blade with the proper Teeth Per Inch (TPI). See the chart below for more information.

Wonderful Saw
Bought for my son to install new counter tops. He said it was wonderful. Man of few words. Nuff said.

All I'll ever need
Rugged well-built saw which does everything I'll ever need on the farm. Great service and lowest price from Amazon. I always read reviews on Amazon purchases before I buy, so this is my thanks for other reviewers.

Most Excellent
I think this is the best reciprocating saw for the money: comfortable, powerful and fast. A good choice for a hobbyist. Get one that comes with a case, like this one does. Cases keep tools and their cords so much more organized than just laying them in a pile.
If you plan on using it where power is not readily available, then get a cordless model. I thought about this a lot because I love my cordless drill, even in the shop. But I decided that if I could only have one of any tool, then it should be a corded model. That was my logic when I bought it, but I am still thinking it would be more useful if it was more portable (battery-powered).
