It couldn’t be any easier than this: a cordless hand saw that cuts wood, metal, drywall, plastic, rope and more. We like it for its grab-it-and-go convenience and because it doesn’t balk at wood that’s up to an inch thick. It’s perfect for taming overgrown bushes and stray branches, but it also makes quick work of PVC pipes, vinyl gutters, wire shelving, wallboard, craft projects and a hundred other things. It’s small and light enough for even the most petite among us to grasp it firmly with just one hand, leaving your other free. Of course, we like bells and whistles, but sometimes, a straightforward tool like this one is the easiest to use. Just keep it in its wall-mountable charger, then grab it when you need it. Even changing blades is a fast and easy task because it’s tool-free.
It’s powered by a 6-volt battery and delivers a surprising 1,850 strokes per minute with a 1/2-inch stroke length, and best of all, it doesn’t require fancy blades – just standard jigsaw blades. Homeowners and do-it-yourselfers will really like this little saw.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste
