Why consider this model?

  • A buyer seeking a compact-bodied Makita cordless reciprocating saw as a documented CXT kit: the exact RJ03R1 page lists two 2.0Ah batteries, a charger, case and blade packages, with the RJ03Z saw body.

Tradeoffs to weigh

  • Makita does not publish a bare-tool weight for the RJ03; its 2.9 lb figure includes a 2.0Ah battery. The 12V max CXT platform is not 18V LXT, and the manual's sliding shoe adjustment is not proof of a pivoting shoe.
