During all the cutting I did, the saw handled very well, with much less vibration than my corded jigsaw. When the trigger is released, the blade stops instantly, which should help reduce the frequency of foul language. Jigsaw-induced foul language, at any rate.

The DCS334 offers a fixed speed setting. It’s reliable for most tasks, but if you need that extra control over speed, you might find it limiting. Like being in control? Another big improvement in function on the DeWalt DCS334 cordless jigsaw brings it. In addition to the variable speed trigger, a speed control dial on top of the handle lets you limit the saw’s top speed. This provides an amazing amount of control when you’re trying to make slow, precise cuts. Here’s the official list of features and specs: All-metal, keyless shoe bevel with detents at 0, 15, 30, and a positive stop at 45 for easy adjustment

Cutting with a jigsaw can generate a lot of sawdust, most of which exists for the sole purpose of covering your cut line. The DeWalt DCS334 has a built-in dust blower, to help clear a path. I found that it worked pretty well when cutting at higher speeds, but at slower speeds I still had to supplement it with an occasional puff of minty operator breath. The dust blower works pretty well during fast cuts. Last but not least, let’s talk about comfort. Working for hours with an uncomfortable tool can be a real pain—literally. The DCS335 comes with a tool-free blade change system, making swapping blades a breeze. This is a massive time-saver when you’re in the middle of a project. This compact tool weighs about 4.2 pounds which is quite impressive for a handheld machine. Why? Because the exterior is made using monolithic aluminum, lessening this machine's weight to a manageable level. What's more, the handle is rather firm and sturdy. Its design comes with the ability to decrease the engine's vibration force. LED Light

Dealing with dust and maintaining a clear line of sight while cutting is crucial for precision work. The first thing I noticed when I liberated the DeWalt DCS334 from its sturdy case is how robust it is. The saw has a great heft to it, and appears solidly built from top to bottom. The front end is all metal, including the blade clamping lever. The handle has a rubber overmold, making the saw more comfortable to hold, while helping reduce vibration. The handle on the DeWalt DCS334 is comfortable, and the trigger is smooth. The DCS334B features LE light at the top, making it effortless for you to do your work in the dark. This is an amazing advantage since it does not limit when you can work, compared to the DCS331B, which does not have Led light. Can swiftly change blades Accepts t-shank jig saw blades for optimal holding power and professional results Scrolling Through The Features On The DeWalt DCS334Next, it was time to try out the saw’s beveled cutting ability. I clamped a piece of ¾” plywood to a work table, set the bevel to 45°, and fired up the DeWalt DCS334. The saw had plenty of power, and had no trouble at all zooming through the cut. Note: Unless you want a “live edge” look for your angled cuts, use a straightedge to guide the saw. The saw worked great for making bevel cuts. Use a straightedge for best results. A freehand bevel cut may end up a tad wavy… Guided cut = straight and smooth. Example: If you’re a professional contractor, comfort and ergonomics are paramount. The DCS335‘s grip can make a world of difference during long working hours. 5. Dust Management and Visibility The DeWalt 20V Max Jig Saw is in the middle-high of the price range. Here’s where the field stands: position pendulum action controls the aggressiveness or smoothness of cuts, tool free adjustable shoe with anti-scratch cover bevels to 47° in both directions. Example: Let’s say you’re working on a delicate scrollwork project. The DCS335 with its variable speed trigger will let you precisely control the blade speed, ensuring those intricate curves come out perfect. 3. Blade Change and Tool-Free Features
