This 20V Axis Reciprocating/Jig Saw 2-in-1 gives you a whole lot of tool(s) for the money. There’s no need to buy a separate reciprocating saw and jigsaw when you have an Axis. Worx engineers figured out that those two saws actually employ a similar motion to get their different jobs done, and designed a way to put that functionality into one tool. So you get the raw power of a reciprocating saw (3000/min of no-load speed) to tear down structures, but then the head folds down into the base to give you more balance to make those intricate cutouts that only a jigsaw can perform. Plus, there’s no cord to get in your way, so you’re free to move. And at only 4.2 lbs, you can work long hours without getting hand and arm fatigue. The jigsaw is made to cut through wood (2” cutting capacity), PVC pipe (2”), and steel plate (5/32”). While the reciprocating saw also cuts wood and PVC pipe at 2”, but steel pipe at 2”, too. And they both have a 0.75” stroke length. With a built-in dust blower, you’ll always see the shapes you’re cutting in jigsaw mode. And the safety lock-off switch prevents accidental starting. Get an innovative 20V Axis Reciprocating/Jig Saw 2-in-1 from Worx and get more done, with less strain on both your hands and your wallet.

The 20V 2-in-1 Axis Reciprocating/Jig Saw from Worx saves you time, money, and its compact design saves you from the ache in your hands and arms that typically come with using saws like these. At only 4.2 lbs, this tool is easy to control, which is essential for the complicated designs you expect to cut with a jigsaw. And its vibration-absorbing soft grip handle cuts down on much of the unpleasant motion that’s inherent in using a reciprocating saw. It runs at 3000 rpms with a 0.75” stroke length, which is enough to cut 2” into wood and PVC pipe and go 5/32” into steel plate as a jigsaw, and as a reciprocating saw it’ll cut 2” into wood, PVC, and steel pipe. The LED headlamp illuminates dark work areas. And the off switch locks into place to guard against accidental starts. The tool-free blade change system is easy to use and accepts all common reciprocating saw and jigsaw blades that you’ll find at any local hardware store. Don’t buy separate jig and reciprocating saws when the Axis was built from the ground up to accomplish the tasks of both in less time and with less strain on the user. This Axis comes with a 20V 1.5 Ah battery and 0.4A charger, which you can use with any tool in the Worx Power Share family. You save money in the long run when you can share batteries between the cordless tools in your collection.
