I recently tested the Electric Horse Knife to see if this compact reciprocating saw could keep up with my workshop demands. By utilizing my existing 18V batteries from Makita and Milwaukee, I found it to be a highly convenient addition for outdoor projects where portability is key.
The build quality is surprisingly sturdy for a handheld tool, featuring a robust housing that feels ready for tough outdoor cutting tasks. It maintains a solid grip while in operation, and the motor delivers consistent power across varied materials like metal piping and thick lumber.
Setup is straightforward; once you snap in your preferred 18V battery, the saw is ready for immediate action. Its lightweight design reduces fatigue during longer sessions, making it much more maneuverable than standard-sized reciprocating saws when working in tight corners or overhead.
This saw is perfect for homeowners and hobbyists who already have a collection of 18V batteries and need an affordable, portable cutter for occasional repairs.
Overall, this tool earns a 4.65 rating for its impressive versatility and smart design. At the $64.90 price point, it is a practical investment that maximizes the value of your existing battery collection.
