 Outstanding Saw January 15, 2008
E. Santacruz (Lancaster, CA)
The saw is an outstanding piece of equipment. The usual high quality milwaukee is known for. If you are cutting 1/4 of below it will go all day. With thicker metal (above 1/4 inch) you need to follow the directions not to push the saw beyond its limits. It will cut up to 3/4 of an inch if used correctly. definately an asset to your tool arsenal. Keep in mind as with all tools stay within the tools proper uses & you will be very satisfied.
A must have! October 28, 2007

This saw does with metal like a circular saw with plywood. It blew me away with its cutting ability. From steel to aluminum, you can set your plasma cutter in storage.

Ordered the saw and had it in two days cut the metal roofing and 10 foot of 1/8 inch steel for a bench top then some 5/16 aluminum with no blade change or time lose. Straight and cool to handle with no mess fine tool.
An amazing tool! Really cuts through steel like magic.. October 16, 2005

I am a metal worker by hobbie.
I needed to cut several squares out of 1/4 plate steel.
I was looking at having them sheared by the steel company for $20 cutting charge per square... That was going to get very expensive...
I decided to buy jigsaw blades ($12 worth) to attack the job myself. I set up a guide and cut them... Went through the 8 blades for 2 squares. It took at least an hour to make the cuts.
I realized that the jigsaw method was a false economy.
I sprang for the Milwaukee 6370-21 circular metal saw kit.
No lie... I cut the same squares out in 5 minutes! The saw seriously ripped through the metal. It did a better/cleaner cut than the jigsaw.
I give the saw a 5 rating right now. I can't address any cons because I have only had it a few days. It worked fantastically for my purposes in the short term, with no signs of future problems.
I can now begin to incorporate more plate steel into my work without concern as to my ability to cut it to size. That's a big savings at the steel yard. Always a requirement of a tool purchase to me is how quickly it will pay for itself in productivity. I am confident that this tool will do that quickly.
Obviously you have to judge any tool by your usage needs. If you are looking to accurately mitre a lot of steel cuts, you might want to get a cold cut mitre chop saw with the same blade technology as this saw... Any portable hand held saw has it's accuracy liablities, you have to choose the right tool for the job at hand....Good luck

Probably the most surprizing power tool that I've ever bought. Cuts through a 2" EMT conduit in 7 seconds, cuts double height strut in seconds.
I no longer take my SawAll and band saw to job anymore.
It's fast, makes an acceptably clean cut, best of all its cordless.
When 20 feet up in the air hanging strut and conduit this is the BEST tool to have with you.
