this honestly seems a bit more like a blade review rather than a saw review. not a bad review or whatever, but more talk about blades than saw.
Great video! I’m seriously considering buying this model. My 40 year old Craftsman just died. BTW the reverse tooth blades are mainly used for cutting laminates (formica). You have to bear down on the saw with constant pressure to prevent jumping.
very nice testing, well done!
Thank you for the video. Any issues with it to date?
Great video!
Very helpful video. It saved my old eyes from having to read the small print of the manual, too, after I bought the saw. BTW I agree with your assessment of the quality — and about battery technology. Also, there’s a "This Old House" video that provides some good information about the settings on a jigsaw.
Question my dewalt jig saw DW331 came with a small piece of clear plastic. It has a triangular tip. Looks like it
May go on the bottom plate as a saw cut guide. No instructions on how this piece gets installed. Can you help me out thanks. You made such a great informative video..thanks
I believe that pvc blade is for cellular pvc sheets and trim, not pipe
Nice, what a machine.
GREAT REVIEW MAN GOOD JOB
Hello, fellows. I am a Spanish native speaker and in the video is mentioned that the tool was made in México…
In my asumption, I said " why this video has not been made in Spanish too?".
reviewing a tool without knowing anything about it is stupid. Orbital control / speed control????
Will it cut through 2 inch wood?
You cut a $100 peice of wood LOL lumber prices are crazy in 2021
I was thinking, the miter settings should be checked to get it more accurate maybe? I usually like to check my blades with an angle guage to tweak it.
A normal upward cutting blade pulls the jigsaw down as it cuts. A downward cutting blade is going to push away. That’s why you feel the kick. You have to physically hold the blade against the wood much more forcefully.
Merci mec👍
Great walkthrough and review!
i own one, most of my tools are Makita but always liked the look of the De walt jigsaw. You can feel the quality when you pick it up, the ergonomics are spot on. One of the most enjoyable tools to use that i own. Your right about cordless, they are great for when you need remote/onsite use but I’ve found most Jigsawing is bench use or close to power. good vid, greetings from New Zealand.
I cringed everytime you started cutting metal lol. It did great! I want one for work and to do’s in my shop. Think I’m getting this one. Great video brother!
Best jigsaw is when you see not dust at all when you cutting watch this 😉

Ой громко всплакнешь, когда подошва развалиться!
Anybody else have trouble cutting thin metal flashing? The metal blades r so short they pop out when the flashing flexes while the blade tries to cut
Totally agree about corded tools, I’ve got a dewalt sawsal from somwwhere around 1997 and no issues at all but my 18v impact wrench from litteraly just a few years ago has dying batteries and the 18v platform that it uses is just about obsolete now. Also I just picked up this jigsaw and very happy! Great review 👍
Thank you sir
From your comments regarding why you purchased this tool, I must suggest that you familiarize yourself with the low cost oscillating tools now available. See links to follow: Harbor Freight https://www.harborfreight.com/power-tools/oscillating-tools.html and similar tool from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Chicago-Pneumatics-68303-Oscillating-Multifunction/dp/B0085GEJ7Q
I bought the corded Chicago Pneumatic tool from Harbor Freight and have used it for nearly 5 years. Solid construction, reliable service and I’m sure glad I bought it. Nothing like it for Sheetrock and Trim work. Plunge cuts like a champ. Variety of blades available, works best on wood, Sheetrock, PVC, etc.
Current Harbor Freight price for kit is $37.99, with a basic tool for less than $20.00. I like the more expensive model for the variable speed feature.
The Bi-Metal blades can cut some metals, but struggle doing so. Better to use another tool if possible. However, once you see how this tool can plunge cut and make trim fit easily, you’ll be happy with it.
Since I am a tool junky, and wanted a cordless model, I did buy the Milwaukee 2426-20 and am very happy with it. Since I already had the rest of the 12 volt tools and the blades from the Chicago Pneumatic fit it, I was good to go with the basic tool. Home Depot sells a ton of Milwaukee tools, so often times they have the best prices when you catch one of their sale days.

Good review, well done.Thanks
One of thest reviews I have seen so far, lots of real life tests, very rich experience !! A reference video for others ..,.
The “caent” you speak of is actually an orbital sweeping action for the blade. It sweeps back and forth in a sweeping motion and cleans material out of the way so it can continue cutting. I just got this machine and will probably keep it on 1. Metal is better on zero. Also look at your blades, some cut on the way up, and some cut on the way down. It all depends on what your cutting the most for you and set it the way it works best. Thanks for the review brother!
I just bought this tool and it cuts on a major angle. I can’t get a vertical cut it cuts out 2” stock in a tapered fashion. Any ideas
I love Dewalt tools however I really like the hard cases that come with the tools too. They have started to go with these bag/soft cases which are junk. Hard cases keep me buying more tools. Wish they would offer the option of hard cases with every tool
Whats the clear plastic triangle piece in the bag with the instructions for?
I’m just now investigating jigsaws and I read that blades that cut on the up stroke pull the saw down onto the surface of the wood, whereas blades that cut on the down stroke lift the saw from the surface. I think that was your trouble. Good video.

I like mine good tool
you are not doing anything wrong with the reverse blade. there is a REASON why most blades are set the other way. It is because the reverse blades do a kickback.
Superb review.. realistic!
so many fkn adds dude

word of warning; don’t use an igloo cooler for a saw horse , while using a jigsaw
Ah man u should have got the cordless version, I couldn’t go back to corded tool again
that jig saw missing the front clear plastic cover i’ve got the same make
What speed do I use on tight angles with 1/2" cedar. I have a dw331k.
Nice Griptilian
I brought this jigsaw home today based on it’s reviews and the other Dewalt power tools I own. I’ve never used a jigsaw before and have several projects I plan to use it for. I found the enclosed “instruction leaflet” sorely lacking in information, especially for a novice user. I searched and found your video and have to thank you for the great practical demonstration. I feel much more comfortable using the saw after seeing your various blade testings and how you handle the saw.
Many Thanks!

I’ve got a Dewalt cordless drill/driver18v I use it some, it’s very handy. But like you said battries cost. Just had to replace those 2 year old bats. Found some online 1/2 half the runtime from Vannonbattries
Good review of blades, but not mention of how well it tracks when tilted over 🙁
