The immediate con to a 3/4" stroke over the 1/25" stroke is that it will
cut most effeminately through 3/4" thick or less material. The 1/25"
stroke lets that happen up to 1.25" thick. If the stroke is shorter than
the thickness your are cutting, some teeth never get to come out of the
wood and clear.

That's not really an issue when one considers the number of tuba-x
material and thicker Sawzall's have zipped thru over the years...

And yet one with a longer stroke will cut faster.



Agreed, although sometimes a shorter shorter stroke is preferred when
blade clearance is limited.
