This allows users to quickly and safely swap blades without needing additional tools, saving valuable time during project transitions. The jigsaw is compatible with both T-shank and U-shank blades, offering users a wide range of blade options for various cutting tasks.

Additionally, the Ryobi RJ162VK comes with a built-in laser guide, which aids users in achieving straight, accurate cuts. This laser alignment feature is especially useful for making precise cuts on larger workpieces, ensuring that projects meet high-quality standards.
