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.

Bosch saws have variable-speed control—you can fine-tune the speed according to the material and thickness you are cutting. This helps you make smooth cuts and extends the life of the blade by keeping it from overheating.

Saws with a dust blower clear away sawdust to keep your cut line visible. Saws with a dust extraction port can be hooked up to your dust collector to keep your work area and air clean.
