One Heck of GREAT SAW

There are times I feel that as though Murphy's Law is in my back pocket, here I was in the middle of a project adding on to a room in the house and my darn jig saw quiet so off I go trying to look for a replacement to complete this job a.s.a.p.
I came across this Reciprocating/Jig Saw tool by WORX. In looking it over I decided to give it a try. I have a couple of tools from WORX that I have used in the past and was most pleased with their performance I figured hopefully this saw will do the job.
I am certainly glad I did, after charging battery and going through the manual
I got it set up and ready to go. In using the tool I found that the operation is smooth with plenty of power, the compact battery doesn't run out of juice for quite a while. Everything about this tool feels quality. It's fairly small but has plenty of heft for precision work. It was able to handle my cuts through drywall and standard 2x4 with ease. The jig saw part made my electrical outlet cuts with ease and trouble free.

As for switching from jigsaw to reciprocating saw it is plain simple, just press in the button, swing the moving part until it clicks, and switch the blade to face the other direction.The saw comes with four separate blades- 3 jigsaw blades and a larger reciprocating wood blade but can be used with other standard jig and reciprocating saw blades. I notice it also has a pendulum function (jig) for thicker pieces of timber, thus your blade won't "stick" as often
The saw runs at 3000 reps/ minute with no load and is decently powerful for a battery pack device. Overall the operation is smooth with plenty of power, the compact battery runs for quite a while. The tool certainly feels quality made and is fairly small but has plenty of heft for precision work.
I am well please with it and I was able to complete my project thanks to this too
it has found its place among my tools and I know it will provide years of great
performance and service. WORX hit it out of the park with this one in deed !!!!

Another Worx Product That Did Not Let Me Down!!

My home project list included tearing down 7 wire shelves in the Pantry and replacing with wooden shelves to add more room and increase the support efficiency. Since I already own 6 Worx products I immediately thought of selecting the 20V Axis Cordless saw to help me. It did not disappoint. The ability to have a cordless saw easily cut through 3/4" thick X 11 1/2" wide wood with ease was really appreciated. Features that I like included lightweight and easy to handle. It cut through the small wood 1 3/4" X 1/2" that I needed to create the shelve supports. End result was creating 7 wood shelves that increased storage capacity and better support that the wire shelves did not give me. The only challenge I had included blade change out. The release clip was difficult to pull back to remove and replace the blade. I was able to change out the 20V battery with others I already have from the other products. This made it a nice perk!! I also used the Worx Drill for my project too. Another Worx product that impressed me for my small home projects. The Pantry turned out great!!!

Disappointing

As suspected this saw is way under powered. The blade slows down significantly once it comes in contact with the material being cut. If you continue to apply pressure while cutting, the blade can actually stop. And this is with a fully charged battery.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very Versatile tool

I have used a variety of saber saws for at least 50 years. While it is not a tool that I use everyday, it does get its share of use. Here are my comments on the new multipurpose by WORX. My first impression was that it was a strange looking contraption but that quickly disappears once I picked it up and took a closer look at it. The first thing I liked was the heft of it. Solidly built. With the battery in place it balanced well in the hand. Changing from saber saw to reciprocal and back, quick and easy. The sole plate is a solid one piece rigid enough to allow a person to :plunge cut"(meaning - you can put the toe of the shoe on the work and slowly lower the blade into the work - softer material please) without losing control. It has a second plate just behind the first that adds to stability while scrolling. While making long straight cuts is typically not the primary function of this type of saw, there is adequate clearance to use an external guide as there is no slot in the base shoe to attach one (see picture for examples). The saw scrolls easily in plywood and almost as easily in heavier stock. Working in heavier stock (as in 2X4 type wood) the solid base helps hold the blade perpendicular. The built in light helps keep you on track. On the reciprocating side, I do not currently have any major project going so I used it to rip up some old 2x4's. The saw zipped right through them quick and easy with minimal vibration.
As I had some trees that could use a little trimming, I then brought the saw out into the yard (did I mention cordless?) to see what it might be able to do. What I needed cut was in the 2" - 3" range. It zipped right through those as well. So in summary, here is a combination tool that will work extremely well with scroll work, fairly well in straight line cutting and overall is well suited for the average DIY person or home handyman. Don't forget it's use as a yard tool as well if you don't have a jawsaw. I would recommend this tool to anyone who has around the home projects or for that matter, even a tradesman.
