I had tried to cut a heavier version of cardboard and it didn't do well. It only has one blade and lacks in power. If more blades were available in a variation of serrations to better match materials, would help a lot. This essentially is a rotary scissors. Makita makes a 3-1/8" cordless saw, model SH02Z-R 12 volt MAX CXT that may serve you better. A variety of blades are available for it from Makita, as well as from other manufacturers. **Q: Does this tool come with the batteries and the charger. It says tool only however on then further down it says Yes on the line item for batteries and** A: The kit comes with a battery and a charger; however, the blade came attached and there is no blade locking pin so you will have to improvise if you want to change the blade. I used a piece of bent coat hanger. Makita Customer Service was unfamiliar with a replacement part and you will not likely find it on line because the tool is brand new. If you want to search, the blade and pin come together as part number 198604-1. **Q: Can it cut wall panels?** A: no, thin panels, carpet, soft goods.... ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***D on January 30, 2026* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***Y on February 1, 2021* ### ⭐ Review *by C***O on January 19, 2026* ## Frequently Bought Together - Makita PC01R3 12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless Multi-Cutter Kit (2.0Ah) - Replacement Rotary Blades Compatible for Makita198604-1 PC0,Alloy Steel Blades fit for Makita Cordless Multi-Cutter,2 Pcs - Makita BL1021B 12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion 2.0Ah Battery --- ## 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.co.uk/products/68534471-pc01r3-12v-max-cxt-lithium-ion-cordless-multi-cutter-kit](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/68534471-pc01r3-12v-max-cxt-lithium-ion-cordless-multi-cutter-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
