First a bit about my setup and other tools.
I originally bought a Makita Drill complete with 2 small batteries and a charger.
I then bought a circular saw and realized after purchase that it requires the larger batteries.
Unlike some reviewers I did not remove the tag from the smaller battery to make it fit. Instead I bought a pair of replacement batteries. As a result I can confirm the following for those who wonder:
- the smaller batteries do not fit in the tools requiring a larger (18v) battery.
- the larger 18v battery does fit in tools that use the smaller battery.
- the charger works for all the battery types.
- it takes as long to run a battery down as it does to charge one, so have 2 batteries of each type.
Now about this tool.
Simply put, it is awesome. I have used it to:
- cut small and large tree roots in the muddy ground
- cut the plastic pot away from a thorny plant that could not easily be removed from the pot.
- cut down small trees
- prune off branches to make them fit better in the disposal bin
- hack off half of a faucet i could not remove otherwise from the sink
- hack off the grocery store's anti-theft seal from a bottle of Tequila
(if you self-checkout make sure to remember to ask the attendant to remove it before leaving the store)
- trim rolls of turf that were too wide for the section of yard I placed them in
- tear down walls
I have used several blades some named brand and some generic. All have installed and worked fine.
The only issue I have encountered is with the lock on blade guard. It was not clear which button position "lock" was. Its simple enough to check manually tho.

I am not a contractor or pro-home craftsman and I have not used other recip. saws, but this is a powerful and useful tool. The design makes it is easy to handle for lighter/medium jobs and the quality of build seems to be good. Battery life was also good.

I bought this saw to use as a pruning tool. I have several other Makita tool that use thre Lithiun-Ion batteries, so buying it with no battery plus charger was not a concern. I've use the saw several time since my puchase and have been very pleased the my purchase.

This battery operated "Sawsall" is great! The front guide is adjustable in length and the blades are quick connect by turning the boss attachment. The saw has an adjustable speed trigger as well. I have already used it to cut down some small trees and do some fiberglass cutting in some boats as well as cutting off some bolts. A fabulous tool that seems to be designed and built well. +A+
