Is the DeWalt Atomic one-handed recip saw good for cutting pipe?

Yes. It handles PVC, copper and conduit well, and the compact body lets you cut in tight spots. For thick cast iron or heavy steel, a full-size saw is faster.

How does it compare with the DeWalt DCS367?

The DCS369 is much shorter and about 37% lighter, so it is easier one-handed. The DCS367 has a longer stroke and cuts faster in thick material.

Does the kit include batteries and a charger?

The kit version includes a 4 Ah and a 6 Ah 20V Max battery plus a charger. The bare-tool version is the saw only.

What blades does it use?

It uses standard reciprocating saw blades with a 1/2-inch shank, the same blades as DeWalt's full-size recip saws.

Can it cut wood and metal?

Yes, with the right blade. Use a wood blade for lumber and a bi-metal blade for pipe and metal. The short stroke limits it in thick stock.

Is it good for overhead work?

Yes. Its light weight and one-handed grip make overhead cuts less tiring than a full-size saw.
