Overview
DEWALT DCS380P1 is a 20V cordless reciprocating saw rated to 1500 RPM, with an 8 inch cutting capacity and a High Speed Steel blade. At 11 pounds and roughly 19 by 4 by 12 inches boxed, it is built as a corded-saw replacement for demolition and remodeling work.
DEWALT's 20V MAX platform runs this reciprocating saw off battery power, avoiding a cord on job sites where power access is limited. The rated 8 inch cutting capacity and steel blade point to demolition-grade cutting through wood, nail-embedded lumber, or similar rough material rather than fine finish work.

Who it's for
Tradespeople and remodelers needing a cordless saw for demolition, pipe cutting, or rough framing are the intended users. Anyone expecting all-day continuous cutting on a single charge should note that runtime depends on the battery pack included, which is not detailed here.
Pros and cons
- Cordless 20V platform for job sites
- 8 inch cutting capacity suits framing work
- High Speed Steel blade included
- Runtime depends on battery, not stated here
- At 11 pounds, overhead use tires the arm
Performance notes
The 1500 RPM rating and 8 inch cutting capacity put this saw in line with typical demolition-grade reciprocating saws, capable of cutting through framing lumber, embedded nails, and similar rough material with a High Speed Steel blade. Running on the 20V battery platform trades outlet dependence for finite runtime, so heavier jobs may require a spare battery.
