Among its range of tools, the Skil brand offers a unique cordless jigsaw, the 3420 DA. A model that offers a good number of well thought-out features for simple and efficient use.
The Skil 3420 DA cordless jigsaw delivers a great performance overall. Without excelling anywhere, it is quite versatile and capable of facing many uses. The 3420 DA is not as precise as a Bosch Professional GST 18V-LI S, but it is much more accessible and easier to handle.
