    Compact Saw with Big Power and Features

    I was honestly surprised by how powerful this little saw is despite its compact size. It handled more than I expected it to, especially considering it's cordless. I used it recently while burying a low-voltage line in my front yard, and it cut through some stubborn roots effortlessly—something I wasn’t sure a compact saw could handle. What really adds value are the thoughtful features: it came with a handy carrying bag, which makes storing and transporting it super convenient, and it included two different blades, so I was ready to go right out of the box. I also appreciated the built-in LED light—it made a real difference when I was working in low-light conditions under bushes and tree shade. The variable speed trigger gives you good control, which is great when you're switching between materials or working in tight spots. Overall, this saw feels like the perfect companion to my chainsaw—great for tasks that don’t require the bulk or raw power of a full-size saw but still need reliable performance. I would absolutely recommend this saw for homeowners or DIYers looking for an affordable, easy-to-use, and feature-rich reciprocating saw. Between the performance, portability, and extras, it’s a great value for the price.

    Does what it is supposed to and more

    We have this bush on our lot that likes to grow into a bigggg afro which I don't mind but we have a shed next to that bush. I wanted to use it to get rid of the branches as fast as possible without using the clipper and guess what? It worked! 25 mins later it's cut and no longer an issue for the shed. It's so nice to accomplish this without having to get a huge chainsaw or take an hour clipping off each branch one by one. I 100% recommend this product and am excited to use it on other yard projects.

    Compact Saw

    This saw does what it is supposed to do for a compact saw, if not more. It’s not as light weight but gets the job done. I just tried pruning a small tree and works great. Only downfall is the saw starts off fast so if you need precision cutting, I would not recommend using this saw.

3.6(5)

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.
