The BladeRunner is portable, versatile tool that combines features of a Sabre, a Jig Saw, Scroll Saw and Band saw into a tool that can cross cut, rip, and scroll through various materials like wood, plastic and metal. Although light-weight it has a solid base, sitting on four non-marring rubber feet, with low vibration when running. Although it can handle some simple cuts, it is best thought of as a Sabre Saw, with extra little capabilities.
