Title: It's Really a Mini Reciprocating Saw
Product review: I just bought the CHS6000 Black and Decker Cordless Powered Hand Saw from a local Big Lots, charged it up, and used it to saw through a chubby tree limb. I discovered that it really was a mini reciprocating saw because it bouned around unless I pressed it against the limb. Hoowever, I got the saw to encircle the limb and VOILA, it cut right through! The limb was 1 1/2 -2" thick, but the little "saw" cut right through with a clean and smooth cut. What a thrill! I will try it on more tricky cuts soon, such as the "pocket cutting" described on page 8 of the manual. I cannot say how precise I could be with the reciprocating shield design, but, I could see around the shoe. The package came with two "jig saw" blades. The wood one, a 10 TPI, is 3 1/2" long and has a "u" mount. The metal one is a 14 TPI, measures 2 1/2" long and has a "t" mount. The whole unit is quite light and easy to handle; a fact my stressed out hands appreciate!
