DeWalt DHT010123 Folding Jab Saw with Rasp

Description

The DeWalt DHT010123 Folding Jab Saw with Rasp is a versatile 2-in-1 cutting and shaping tool designed specifically for drywall and general sheet material work. Combining a triple-ground tooth jab saw blade with a durable stainless-steel rasp, it allows you to cut, enlarge, and refine openings using a single compact tool. Both the saw and rasp fold neatly into the ergonomic bi-material handle, providing safe storage and easy transport in your pocket, pouch or tool bag.

Cutting performance

The jab saw blade features triple ground teeth engineered for fast, aggressive cutting through plasterboard and similar materials. This tooth profile delivers rapid progress with less effort, helping you quickly form openings for sockets, switches, lighting, and services. The pointed tip is ideal for plunge cuts into drywall, reducing the need for pre-drilling and speeding up first fix and cut-out work.

Rasp for material removal and shaping

The integrated rasp is made from durable stainless steel, designed for efficient material removal and fine-tuning cut-outs. After roughing out an opening with the jab saw, the rasp allows you to enlarge or clean up the edges for a more accurate fit around back boxes, fittings and fixtures. The stainless-steel construction offers excellent wear resistance and corrosion protection, ensuring long-term performance on site.

Folding design and safety

Both the jab saw blade and rasp fold fully into the handle, protecting the cutting surfaces and reducing the risk of accidental damage or injury when not in use. A locking mechanism secures each tool in both open and closed positions, giving you confidence that the blade or rasp will not fold unexpectedly during use or storage. This folding design provides a compact footprint that is easy to carry and store.

Ergonomic bi-material handle

The DeWalt DHT010123 is fitted with an ergonomic bi-material handle that combines a robust core with softer overmoulded sections for improved comfort and grip. The contoured shape supports a secure hold and better control during aggressive cutting and rasping, helping reduce hand fatigue over prolonged use. This makes it particularly suitable for repeated cut-out work on larger drywall installations.

Applications and use cases

The DeWalt DHT010123 Folding Jab Saw with Rasp is ideal for cutting and shaping openings in plasterboard, drywall and similar sheet materials. Typical applications include forming holes for electrical back boxes, switches, sockets, lighting fixtures, ducts, and other services. It is a valuable tool for electricians, dryliners, builders, HVAC installers and serious DIY users who want a compact, multi-function cut-out solution that covers both cutting and shaping in one tool.
