Product Description
The DW936K has a 5-3/8-inch carbide blade to shred 2-by-4s in a single pass or rip veneer with sniper accuracy. The blade is on the left for maximum visibility and has a spindle lock for easy blade changes. A powerful 18-volt motor with replaceable brushes provides 350 watts of power and 3,300 rpm cutting speed to devour 35 feet of 1/2-inch plywood per minute. The shoe adjusts to bevel 50 degrees and to 1-5/8 inch depth of cut at 90 degrees. Cuts 125 2-by-4 crosscuts or 130 feet of 1/2-inch plywood on a single charge. Lighter weight and more compact than other 18-volt saws, the DW936K will meet the needs of the users that need the versatility of cordless but do not need the extra capacity of the DW939K. The saw is cordless, not gutless. The DW936K includes the saw, blade, XR PACK battery, charger, rip fence, and kit box.

 Superb Trim Saw July 5, 2008
My first word when I ripped my first board with this Trim saw was "Wow!" The ease of use, it's ability to slice through a piece of lumber, or a long cut through plywood, without any effort was amazing. The total balanced feel of this trim saw is outstanding, and even nicer to have the blade on the left which permits a better viewing angle of the wood being cut.
This trim saw is also cordless, and it uses the same 18v battery pack that my other DeWalt power tools use. This makes it even more versatile where electrical outlets are few and far between, or when running an extension cord creates tripping hazards or other safety issues.
Bear in mind that this is a Trim Saw; it was not designed to slice through huge rough 4x4's in one swipe. But it will perform quite well for most of anyone's DIY projects around the house or farm. You get a lot of saw for the money, and the DeWalt company stands behind everything they build.

I bought this in 2004 as part of the drill/saw kit mainly because I needed another drill. I thought that the saw wouldn' t see much use. Turns out, I use this saw more than I thought I would. I have used it to trim off door bottoms, cut in foundation vents, trim off roof decking, cutting out hvac register vents, corner boards, fence work.....the list goes on. Keep the blade sharp, have a backup battery and go. The safety is a pain, but it does keep you on your toes. Great saw.
 handy and nothing else!! March 8, 2006

power of this saw is very week,it is very importent!
If u dont have secend battery,dont be disapointet if u stop in the midle of your job.It really called "TRIM SAW" for a smal peace of wood! If you tryaing use TRIM SAW to cat wood 2x2, or 2x4 or plywood for longer time ,battery will dead very soon.

I replaced a 'made in china' with this trim saw.
It's a trim saw and does exactly what it's designed to do. i.e. make easy ,quick cuts in cabinetry,plywood,and or up to 2"x3"s
Need a framing saw,buy that.
It Has Drawbacks, But Useful Overall November 5, 2005

I initially bought this for repairs in my mother's rental house while the electricity was turned off. I've since used it around the house. I'm glad I have it, but one should be aware of the drawbacks before buying.
Advantages:
- Like any cordless saw, gives you much more flexibility
- Compact
- Extremely handy to just grab a saw for small jobs without locating an outlet, extension cord, et cetera
- Extremely handy for cuts on the roof or other awkward locations
- A really good addition to your current Dewalt 18V tool stable
Disadvantages:
- This is not a Skil 77! It can't handle all jobs.
- Blade tends to bind on long cuts. I found that being patient and moving the saw slow and steady made a lot of difference. It takes practice, but can be done. You also need to arrange the piece being cut (i.e. plywood) so that it doesn't warp as the cut progresses.
- The selection of 5-3/8" blades at your local hardware store may not be very good. Having clean, sharp blades makes this saw a lot more pleasant to use.
- This saw seems to have more tear-out/splintering on the back side than I get from corded tools.
- Switch is awkward some times, but safe.
- The case seems pretty bulky for what's inside
Summary:
Using this saw for the right jobs will be rewarding. It requires practice and a different attitude than a heavy-duty corded saw, but once that's mastered, it's pretty convenient. Recently I used it to lop off 2-1/2" branches from a fallen tree (2 cuts) - so much easier than stringing 150 feet of cord, and safer than using a chain saw for everything. So - if you recognize the limitations, it's pretty useful, especially with a vehicle charger for remote jobs. Three-and-a-half stars would be my rating if possible.
