A Complete Workshop in One Versatile Tool
Whether you're a professional woodworker or an avid do-it-yourselfer, the RK5101K is an effective way to streamline your work. Easily carried in its compact, lightweight bag, the kit can be kept at your fingertips for all your remodeling, installation, and repair projects.

Starting with the basics, this 37-piece multipurpose kit comes with a variable speed tool and includes two cutting blades, a carbide grit blade, a sanding pad, and 30 sanding sheets that help you cut, remove grout, and sand, with professional-grade results. It also includes a tough, broad-spectrum scraper and a hex key.

Sprucing up the garage? Utilize the scraper attachment to remove paint, old caulking, and rust. Remodeling the bathroom? Remove grout with the kit's carbide grit blade and score ceramic tiling for shaping with the optional diamond grit blade. Exposing hardwood? Remove carpeting using the broad spectrum scraping blade then let the sanding system take over to polish those hard-to-reach spaces.

High-Frequency Oscillation for Smooth, Safe Precision
For the safest and most accurate work, the RK5101K features super high-frequency microsonic oscillation technology. This means that instead of rotating, it makes up to 20,000 back-and-forth oscillations per minute for ultra smooth, efficient results. Because there are no fast-spinning parts or alternating blades, there are no threats of kickback.

Thanks to its advanced design, the RK5101K cuts only hard materials when fitted with a blade attachment. This way, the tool easily cuts heavy-duty materials, while keeping the user's hands and fingers safe.

The RK5101K can cut wood, thin metals, fiberglass, masonry, plastic, carpet, flooring, cement board, and even vinyl siding.

High Sanding Capacity with Low Dust Levels
For sanding jobs, this tool requires very little downward pressure and delivers great accuracy. And its slim body enhances your sanding capabilities, allowing you to work on edging and corners that are often not possible to reach with other tools. Plus, it affords you quick and easy clean-up, throwing a very low level of dust whether you're sanding, cutting, or scraping.

Easy Handling with Lightweight Frame and Soft Grip
The RK5101K has magnesium alloy gear housing, making it lightweight enough for extended use and rugged enough for long-term durability. The soft, ergonomic grip offers you optimum comfort and control while you tackle the job at hand.

What's in the Box
Rockwell RK5101K Variable Speed Sonicrafter tool, 2 cutting blades, 1 carbide grit blade, 1 sanding pad, 1 broad spectrum scraper blade, 1 hex key, 30 sanding sheets and a convenient carry bag.

2 out of 5 stars unacceptable customer service at US Factory Outlet   March 8, 2010

Firstly, let me say that I don't fault Amazon.com from making a profit. I don't know what arrangements are made between the retailers that list their wares here on amazon.com in regard to compensation but, I don't believe we the consumers should have to be penalized for using Amazon. I also don't appreciate getting a curt response to my question about why I paid more for this tool using amazon.com then if I had gone to the US Factory Outlet and ordered it there. I was told that because they had to pay Amazon.com, they added it to anyone that orders through Amazon. I realize that its only a matter of 2 or 3 dollars, but thats not the point.

In regard to my purchase of the Rockwell Sonicrafter with the 37 piece accessory kit; I have to say that it exceeds my expectations. Its a great tool and its a good value. I only wish that I didn't have to deal with people that seem to care so little for their customers.



4 out of 5 stars Must have tool; but, has design flaw   February 28, 2010
Fred Klintworth
I've had my tool for over a year now and have used it frequently for carpentry jobs. To me it's indispensable. But, in my opinion there is one significant design flaw: the method of attaching the blades. I'm getting ready now to order another one of the wood/metal cutting blades because the star-shaped hole where it is secured has wallowed out. That's because the blade keeps working loose, no matter how tight the retaining screw. Except for this, it's a great tool.

I went looking for this tool on Amazon after seeing a "How-To" video with Tom Silva of This Old House demonstrating how to install a lamniate floor. I was dreading the task of triming the door casings with hand tools. When I came across the Rockwell Soni-crafter I recognized it as looking like the tool that Tom had been using without mentioning its name. (Well, it might have been the Fein Multi-tasker, which is too expensive for my home projects usage.) Even for my immediate limited usage I consider it was well worth the price. It made the job of triming eight casings simple, accurate, easy and fast. I will undoubtedly have more use for it from time to time.


5 out of 5 stars Good quality!   February 24, 2010

I haven't owned any other product like this so I can't compare but so far it exceeded my expectation!


5 out of 5 stars Great gift.   February 17, 2010
Jennifer Talley (Menifee, CA)
I bought this for my father-in-law who has everything. He is hard to shop for, but this product was great! He hasn't stopped raving about it since. You can use it for so many different things and it has great power.
