Our take on the DeWalt DCS312B 12V MAX Brushless Cordless One-Handed Reciprocating Saw (Tool Only)

The DeWalt DCS312B is a compact one-handed reciprocating saw in DeWalt's 12V MAX XTREME line. It weighs about 3 lbs and runs a brushless motor at up to 2,800 strokes per minute, with an LED for dark cuts. It suits light trim, PVC, copper pipe and pruning work where a full-size saw is too bulky. Against 18V and 20V recip saws it trades power and stroke length for size and one-hand control, and it is sold as a bare tool for people already on 12V MAX batteries.

What reviewers say

Owners treat it as a handy compact saw for pipe, trim and quick cuts, and like the light weight and one-hand grip. Most criticism centers on the short stroke and modest power on thicker material, and on it arriving as a bare tool.

What people mention
  • WeightPraisedOwners like that it is light enough to hold and cut with one hand.
  • PowerMixedFine for pipe and trim, but reviewers say it bogs down in thicker lumber.
  • Stroke lengthCriticisedThe short stroke makes cutting slower than with full-size reciprocating saws.
  • Battery platformPraisedIt runs on the same 12V MAX batteries and chargers buyers already own.
  • Blade changesCriticisedSwapping blades takes a tool rather than a quick-release lever.

Yes. Its size and one-hand grip suit cutting pipe in tight or overhead spots.
