Thanks Vstech, I had no idea there was a difference in length of stroke. (There's a joke in there somewhere............) I would definitely value longer stroke over sheer horsepower, and that'll be a deciding factor if I ever have to replace either of my reciprocating saws.

My Sawzall also lacks the orbital feature, which my Ridgid has. I like having that, and any replacement will have it as well, although a blade with a slight downward slope to it will do most of that.
