DEWALT DCS335B 20V MAX Barrel-Grip Jigsaw, Brushless, Variable Speed

For curved cuts, shaping workpieces or following a marked cut line in a dim work area, the DEWALT DCS335B brings speed control and a built-in LED to the job. Its compact barrel-grip design supports close handling, while the dust blower helps keep the cutting line visible. Choose it for adjustable control and bevel cuts, a simpler saw may suit work that doesn’t call for those adjustments.

Who it’s for

This cordless jigsaw is suited to DIYers and tradespeople who need to guide cuts by hand and adjust the tool to the task. Its brushless motor is designed for efficient performance and longer runtime compared with the DCS331 jigsaw. A variable-speed trigger and dial let you tailor blade speed up to 3,200 spm, while four-position orbital action offers another way to adapt the cut to different materials.

The compact body and barrel grip are useful when positioning the saw carefully along a line or working through a shaped cut. An LED illuminates dim work surfaces, and the integrated dust blower clears dust and debris from the line of sight as you cut. Buyers often highlight its handling, comfortable feel and control, those impressions can help inform a purchase, while the tool’s listed features explain how it supports guided cutting.

Pros

The lever-action, all-metal keyless blade clamp makes changing compatible T-shank blades straightforward, helping you move between cutting tasks without a separate blade-change key. Variable speed gives you control over the pace, and the orbital settings let you choose an approach suited to the material and cut. Together, these adjustments make the saw useful for more than one kind of cut, rather than limiting it to a single fixed cutting style.

For angled work, the all-metal keyless shoe bevel has detents at 0°, 15° and 30°, plus a positive stop at 45°. The shoe cover is removable and helps protect materials from scratches. If your priority is following a line and changing speed or bevel as the work progresses, these features offer practical control in one handheld tool.

The essentials

• Type: 20V MAX cordless jigsaw with barrel grip
• Model: DCS335B
• Motor: Brushless
• Speed: Variable control up to 3,200 spm

For a practical job, mark the cut, set the bevel if an angled edge is needed, and use the variable-speed control to guide the blade along the line. The LED and dust blower help maintain visibility at the work surface. It makes sense if you want a jigsaw with adjustable cutting behaviour and quick, keyless blade changes rather than a basic fixed-setting approach.

Before you decide

Which blades does the saw accept? The keyless blade clamp is designed for T-shank jigsaw blades, allowing quick blade changes.

Can it make bevel cuts? Yes. The shoe bevel has detents at 0°, 15° and 30°, with a positive stop at 45°.

How can I keep the cut line visible? The integrated dust blower helps clear dust and debris from the line of sight, and the LED illuminates dim work surfaces.

Should you buy it?

Choose the DCS335B for guided cutting where grip, visibility and adjustability matter. Its brushless motor, variable speed, four-position orbital action and keyless bevel and blade adjustments make it a practical fit for shaping work and changing cut angles without adding extra steps to routine setup.
