The Black & Decker JS700K is a 5.5 amp scrolling and orbital action jigsaw offered by Black & Decker. The patented AccuCut blade support and roller blade guide give greater accuracy in orbital, straight and scrolling cutting modes for a square cut. It accepts U and T shank blades, which can be quickly changed using the tool-free Quick Clamp blade change system. A SIGHTLINE channel and powerful dust blower improves visibility to cut line, improving the accuracy of cuts. Electronic variable speed provides added control & cutting versatility in wood, metal and plastic, and the three position orbital action gives added control and versitility while the rotating scrolling knob rotates 360 degrees for more intricate cutting. Contoured two finger trigger provides added comfort & control. A tool free beveling shoe allows user to bevel shoe without tools. The Black & Decker JS700K comes with one wood cutting blade, one scrolling jigsaw blade and a kit box.
