With all the power of an electric saw but no cords, these saws rip, cross-cut, and make angled cuts in wood sheets and boards anywhere you need. They’re best for long cuts and for wood that’s too wide for a miter or chop saw. Shortly after you release the trigger, a brake stops the blade so you can quickly reposition your workpiece for the next cut. Their brushless motor optimizes battery usage, so these saws run longer on a single charge. It also enhances longevity—they run cool and have few moving parts that require maintenance.

Some saws include rechargeable batteries. For other saws, batteries and chargers are sold separately.
