The Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Reciprocating Saw (tool only) combines cutting speed with convenience features for faster, more efficient cutting. It’s powered by the industry’s fastest charging 18V lithium-ion batteries (sold separately), allowing users to remain in one battery platform and use the same fast-charging 18V batteries on the XRJ04Z as they use across the Makita 18V LXT® cordless tool line-up.
The XRJ04Z is equipped with efficiency features for faster cutting. The long 1-1/4” stroke length increases cutting efficiency, and the refined crank mechanism design minimizes blade deflection and reduces vibration. Convenience features include a large two-finger variable speed trigger, electric brake, and “tool-less” blade change for faster blade installation and removal.
Product Features
- Makita-built variable speed motor delivers 0-2,800 strokes per minute and a 1-1/4″ stroke length for faster cutting

- Variable speed trigger for added convenience
- Compact and ergonomic design at only 19-1/8″ long

I called customer service and was told that a small metal tool was added to the battery platform on this…
Bought this tool not for its normal construction or house …
Beastmode Cuts like a dream. The inch and a quarter stroke makes all the difference, that and a good sharp blade. Surprised this saw has so much power. Ergonomics are excellent. I hated to do it but I deducted one star because the equivalent DeWalt recip saw B007NVSTCK is currently selling for the same price but they are running a promo offer of a free 3 amp hour 20v max battery/charger combo kit (almost a hundred dollar value) making the DeWalt saw a much better deal but since I’m already invested…
