They’re all sawzalls to me.

Fun bonus use: if you’re pouring a concrete slab, take out the blade and vibrate your forms.

Edit: I’m not asking for a history lesson, I know who made the sawzall. I’m asking what term you use for it. Funny how many pencil necks don’t read the comments before commenting. If that’s the way you feel, upvote the first loser who came in here with that “actually Milwaukee…” instead of answering the question.

Yeah, boy howdy, I used to work with ol Mr. Perfect himself. Everybody in the shop said sawzall, and every single time this loon would, "a hm" correct them. He would rise up from his chair and announce, "It is actually a reciprocating saw, Sawzall is the name brand of only One brand of reciprocating saw made by Milwaukee". Then he would situate his butt cheeks back over the cone they had drawn up in his chair and resume whatever it was he had been doing. We used to move his note pads and pins and pencils just to drive him crazy! LOL

A hm..... the first saw of that type was built by Milwaukee. They called it a Sawzall. Milwaukee trademarked the name.

Therefore, every saw of that type is a Sawzall that is using another name in order to bypass the trademark. So the correct name is Sawzall. And the name "reciprocating saw", and all others, are just made up trademark bypasses.

Did you ever put his stapler in Jell-O or come to work dressed as him?
