Overview
Bosch lists the GST18V-47N as an 18 volt battery powered saw with a 2700 RPM rating and a 1 inch cutting capacity, built around a high speed steel blade. It weighs 4.77 pounds and measures about 10.2 by 3 by 6.6 inches, small enough for one-handed cutting work.
The GST prefix in Bosch's lineup marks this as a jigsaw, and the specs back that reading: a compact body, modest 1 inch capacity and high speed steel blade compatibility all point to detail and curved cutting rather than heavy ripping. Cordless 18 volt operation trades outright power for freedom from a cord.

Who it's for
Trim work, curved cuts and general cordless cutting tasks are where the GST18V-47N earns its keep. Anyone needing to cut material thicker than an inch will run into its limits fast.
Pros and cons
- Compact and light at 4.77 pounds
- Cordless 18 volt operation
- Suited to detail and curved cuts
- 1 inch cutting capacity limits it to thin material
- Runtime depends on a battery pack not included in these specs
Performance notes
At 2700 RPM the motor is geared for control on curved and detail cuts rather than raw speed, and the high speed steel blade compatibility suits general purpose cutting. Being battery powered at 18 volts, actual runtime depends on the battery pack used, which is not specified here.
