Corded jigsaws cut curves and intricate shapes with a reciprocating blade.  Variable speed, orbital action and blade change systems allow you to tailor the cut to the material.  They’re indispensable for cutting in tight spaces and making sink cut outs.
What is a jigsaw used for?
A jigsaw is a handheld saw designed for cutting curves, shapes, and intricate patterns in wood, plastic, metal, and laminate. It's ideal for scroll work, sink cutouts, trimming flooring, and any task where controlled, flexible cutting is required. With the right blade, it can handle straight, bevel, and plunge cuts with ease.
Why choose a corded jigsaw over a cordless one?
Corded jigsaws provide continuous power, higher cutting speeds, and no downtime—making them ideal for longer projects or workshop settings. They tend to be lighter (no battery) and more cost-effective for users who don’t require cordless mobility.
What features should I look for in a corded jigsaw?
Key features include:
Variable speed control for different materials
Orbital action settings for faster or smoother cuts
Tool-free blade change system (T-shank compatibility)
Bevel adjustment (usually up to 45°) for angled cuts
Dust extraction port and LED lighting for better visibility
Also consider an anti-splinter insert for cleaner cuts in fine materials like laminate or veneer.
