Amazon.com Review
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 What's in the Box

 Handisaw July 22, 2010
Mrs. Sylvia K. Derr (Pennsylvania)
As an older widow lady I purchased this saw to prune some small trees/brush behind my newly purchased mobile home. Also, I wanted to cut down some thin trees at wood's edge. I have to say that, though it seems many have used this saw for pruning, I was not able to get enough of a grip on the saw to even prune. I don't know that I will have any other opportunities to use the saw, but as a handicrafter, it will be here if and when I need it.
Mainly, I read the reviews and thought it would get my pruning and small-cutting done, but it just didn't cut it for me!
My son will get the job done, but isn't it nice when you don't have to depend on the kids!
If you have multiple possible uses for this saw, it is overall a good saw.
 Great little saw July 15, 2010
Gerry Martin (MACON, GA, US)
I admit I haven't tried this on thicker wood yet, but seems to be everything I need for small repairs and cutting up tree branches that fall during storms. I love the fact that it is battery operated and I don't have to drag a cord all over the place.
Handy and easy to use February 17, 2010

Limited use at this point, but the two tasks I've done were easy with this saw.
Nice saw February 7, 2010

I've had my saw for several years. I use it for small (say, "tiny") jobs around the garage. I use 1/4" wood for lots of little things... they're free in the form of paint-stir boards. The Handisaw is perfect for working with this type of wood (soft). I also use it for dowels and trim but have used it for 1x2's also. I like the fact that it uses standard (and cheap) sabre saw blades and it's so easy to change from one to another. I read about certain "fixes" in some of the other comments and I decided to do them. Only took a few minutes. Decided to share with you....
Visibility. Just use a pair of "dykes" to cut out one piece of plastic on each side of the front guard. Visibility problem solved.
Safety Button. Up to you, but it bugged me so I fixed it. I held the button back and put a washer into the slot (you have to see it to know this is simple). The button now stays in the "released" position. Now I have to be a bit more careful with it to keep from accidentally pressing the trigger. But I vow to be careful.
That's it. Except that I just found a "deal" for more of these for $10 and am headed out to get some of these for gifts. Btw, I paid $20 for mine when they were on closeout at the B&D Outlet store (now closed). For $10, I'll have a spare and give away a nice gift too.
Great little tool! February 7, 2010

Have one and use it for all sorts of projects, even cutting branches of trees. Holds charge very well. Bought this one for my son so he doesn't have to use the chain saw indoors anymore.
