Review: Great little tool, amazing customer service (updated 4/2012) - Thank you desertcart and Black & Decker!(and I am sure my neighbors would thank you if they could). When this came up as a recommendation (I had been looking at chain saws) I said "yeah, right, like that's going to do anything". I have an acre with a woody hedge, some branches 6-8 inches in diameter. I have been working on it with a pruning saw, a slow laborious process. Needless to say it has not been coming along too quickly. There are places where it is 20 feet tall. My saw arrived yesterday, and thanks to great instructions on installing the blade from another reviewer. Since I have not been able to link that review, I will note that if you are having difficulty installing the blade, lay it on it's sideand look into the opening. Make sure that the button which the blade slips on to is oriented correctly (the manual does say to check the orientation and adjust with a screwdriver if necessary. that is, by prodding it a bit to align it). Place the blade in the slot and drop it so that the opening on the blade slips over the oval knob, and then gently pull down until it snaps into place. this should only take a minute or so (less, actually) I was up and running in a couple of minutes, and so surprised at how easy it was: light, maneuverable, powerful (well, more so than I had been expecting). My son came out to check out the new saw, saying "it cuts just like a light saber) lol, well we all have our own points of reference. I cleared 25 linear feet in less than an hour (more level and cleaner than I could get by hand).... only another 980 or so to go :p The only limitation I have is the length of my extension cords (bet I know what my next recommendation is going to be). I am thinking of tiptoeing over to the other listing and getting that little LI chain saw while it's on sale (and my husband is out of the house.... I got this because he doesn't trust me with a chain saw) :D Having done that so easily, I attempted to take out a dead orange tree (hardwood) which my husband said he could not get with the (18" gas) chainsaw. I had an avocado tree becoming bonsaied while I waited for the orange tree to come out...and finally did it myself with this little saw! The trunk is over 12" in diameter. The limbs 6"-8". I took it slowly, and had no trouble at all (though the saw is rated for half the diameter). (The trick is to hold it steady without putting much pressure on the blade and let the saw do the work.) A week or so later we used a chipper/ shredder to mulch hat I had taken out. I would guess it produced between 50-100 gallons of wood chips from what i took out in just a few hours with this saw! Then my husband borrowed the saw to trim some of the bigger limbs to fit in the shredder, and in no time flat, broke the shaft :( (how that happened when I'd used the same saw to take down the tree cutting through larger parts than he was cutting i will never know) BUT: I took it into the local Black & Decker service center & they replaced it, sent me a brand new one no questions asked! In fact It got here in just 1 week (and that is to the most geographically remote land mass on earth. I am very happy with the tool and amazed at Black & Decker's customer service. When I need another tool (and I do to reach the parts of the yard I can't get to with an extension cord) I will absolutely be going back to Black & Decker. I have never experienced customer service like this before! (Very happy customer!) This is a great little tool for the price; a great little tool period. Review: Reliable and Efficient Electric Hand Saw for Yard Work - I recently purchased the Black and Decker electric hand saw to tackle the persistent issue of small trees sprouting in my yard. Initially hesitant about using a chainsaw due to safety concerns, I opted for this electric hand saw, and I couldn't be more satisfied with my choice. First and foremost, the ease of use of this electric hand saw is remarkable. I found it intuitive when I took it out of the box and easy to handle. Its lightweight design makes maneuvering effortless, even for extended periods. Despite its compact size, don't let that fool you – this saw packs a punch when it comes to power. In terms of performance, I've been thoroughly impressed. I've already removed four small trees, each around six feet high, and the saw hasn't shown any signs of slowing down. The cutting efficiency is exceptional, making quick work of even thicker branches. While the blade did become dull after extensive use, it's nothing out of the ordinary, and I appreciated the foresight to order a replacement blade in advance. Maintenance is straightforward, ensuring the saw remains in top condition for future use. Overall, this electric hand saw has become my go-to tool for yard work. Its ease of use, power, and reliability have exceeded my expectations. If you need a reliable solution for tackling small trees and branches in your yard, look no further than this electric hand saw. Highly recommended. ## Features - High-performance 34A power hand saw motor with 4600 SPM for controlled cuts in wood, plastic + metal, Blade length 9.4 in. - Compact, lightweight design makes it easy to control + handle - Ideal for straight cutting, for great results on large materials, Quick + easy tool-free blade changes - Versatile indoor/outdoor operation - Storage bag easily stores saw, blades, cord + more for your house and garden ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000CA6FDY | | Best Sellers Rank | #531,265 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #692 in Handsaws | | Blade Length | 9.4 Inches | | Blade Material | Metal | | Blade Shape | Rectangular | | Brand | BLACK+DECKER | | Brand Name | BLACK+DECKER | | Color | Black | | Current Rating | 3.4 Amps | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 5,513 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00028877531724 | | Handle Material | Plastic or rubber | | Included Components | Bag, Black & Decker Phs550B 3.4 Amp Powered Handsaw, Large Capacity Blade, Metal Cutting Blade | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 17.1"L x 8"W x 5.5"H | | Manufacturer | Black & Decker | | Manufacturer Part Number | FBA_BDKPHS550B | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 2 Year Warranty | | Model Number | Black+Decker-PHS550B | | Number of Teeth | 6 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Brushless | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Special Feature | Brushless | | Specification Met | OSHA | | Speed | 4600 RPM | | Surface Recommendation | Wood, Plastic, Metal | | UPC | 028877531724 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 120 Volts | | Warranty Type | Limited Warranty (2 years) | | Wattage | 416 watts | ## Product Details - **Blade Material:** Metal - **Brand:** BLACK+DECKER - **Color:** Black - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Surface Recommendation:** Wood, Plastic, Metal ## Images ![BLACK+DECKER Electric Hand Saw with Storage Bag, 3.4-Amp (PHS550B) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71VQ1zxdmAL.jpg) ![BLACK+DECKER Electric Hand Saw with Storage Bag, 3.4-Amp (PHS550B) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81unzq7+HSL.jpg) ![BLACK+DECKER Electric Hand Saw with Storage Bag, 3.4-Amp (PHS550B) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71P6+-jMO1L.jpg) ![BLACK+DECKER Electric Hand Saw with Storage Bag, 3.4-Amp (PHS550B) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51hsFbB9b8L.jpg) ![BLACK+DECKER Electric Hand Saw with Storage Bag, 3.4-Amp (PHS550B) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PL8rdL3YL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this a good saw to use for cutting tree branches (between 3" and 5" thick) into firewood? Has anyone tried to do this with this saw?** A: It ought to. I just used mine to cut two 2" x 6" pine nailed together. That would be 3" x 5 1/2". **Q: can i cut bone** A: it probably would cut bone but it has to be stable it probably would fly all over. **Q: Appropriate for cutting lumber like a 2x4 or sheet of paneling?** A: Yes, this saw will do 2x4s or 2x6s, for example, but I'd keep in mind that the saw probably is not for 3x3 or larger wooden posts. I'm just guessing on the largest size, however, from the size of the blade and overall size of the unit. This saw easily cuts paneling, however. Two blades come with the saw: a coarse blade for wood, and a fine-tooth blade for metal and plastic or PVC piping. So far the saw has done a great job for various tasks, and it's very compact and comfortable to use. I've used it mainly for planks about an inch thick, and fallen tree branches that need to be trimmed. **Q: Will it cut plywood in a stright line ?** A: This saw will easily cut plywood on a straight line. As long as you have straight marking to follow. This saw is the bomb. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little tool, amazing customer service (updated 4/2012) *by E***E on December 17, 2011* Thank you Amazon and Black & Decker!(and I am sure my neighbors would thank you if they could).

Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Alternative to a Sawzall: Added Comments after Using it *by M***N on July 6, 2008* I bought this saw primarily to cut up medium-sized branches trimmed off the trees hanging over my fence from the neighbor's yard. Up to about 1" in diameter, I use a Siskars lopper, but I needed something to cut larger branches to 18" long or shorter, so they'd fit in my green waste recycling bin. This saw is basically a powered hacksaw. It feels hefty and well-made. Even using the wood blade, it takes patience to cut through a 2" branch or larger. It is variable speed, but even so it sometimes grabs the wood and sets up some severe vibration, much like a Sawzall, and darn near scrambles your brain if you don't let go of the trigger. It seems to work better if I cut halfway thru and then flip the wood over and cut from the other side. It might help to put the wood in a vise or clamp it to something so you can keep both hands on the saw like the instructions recommend. It arrived at my house fairly promptly and in good condition, but I was upset to see it advertised on Amazon for $39 (I paid $44 a week earlier). Oh well, guess you can't win them all. Can't wait to see how the metal-cutting blade works. Overall, I'd say it's worth buying, especially if you're into power tools like I am. Good luck! Just an additional comment: Since my 1st review, I used this saw to cut thru the nails they used to secure the roof sheathing to the facia boards, when I was replacing some rotting facia. In this instance, this saw was invaluable. With the metal cutting blade attached, it cut the nails like a hot knife thru butter. I actually couldn't think of an easier way to do this job, because prying on that thin sheathing was damaging the old plywood. Because of this job alone, the purchase of this saw was well worth it. Buy it if the price is right (Amazon prices flucuate like the stock market.) ## Frequently Bought Together - BLACK+DECKER Electric Hand Saw with Storage Bag, 3.4-Amp (PHS550B) - Replacement Electric Hand Saw Blade Combo Set, Compatible for Black+Decker SC500/PHS550B Navigator Saw, Wood Metal Plastic Cutting Blade 3-Piece - Black & Decker 74592 Saw Blade --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/1139518-black-decker-electric-hand-saw-with-storage-bag-3-4](https://www.desertcart.be/products/1139518-black-decker-electric-hand-saw-with-storage-bag-3-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
