Milwaukee M18 Fuel HACKZALL Reciprocating Saw (2719-20)

Lots of power packed into a small sawzall. My last one lasted 5 years of abuse. With a good blade can cut through rigid conduit, unistrut, and flys through wood. Super convenient having a free hand to hold material while cutting, or other sketchy situations.

When I go to cut stuff up a great reciprocating saw just does so much better than other choices. With the right quality blade I can zip through steel, cut tree branches, saw wood, get through pipe or most anything. I Highly Recommend using Tungsten Carbide tipped blades such as those by Freud (Diablo Blades) as I've had great success pairing them with my corded or cordless sawzalls.

This Milwaukee Hackzall is a compact cordless tool that will reach into tight spots such as under a counter. The size doesn't limit the power which is determined by the tool design which is outstanding. Battery life will of course be determined by usage, mAh capacity, etc. But whatever Milwaukee M18V Lithium Rechargeable (or generic compatible) chosen the tool itself is superb. It handles well one handed and cuts as strongly as my bigger sawzall. Up on a ladder trimming branches one handed is doable with this. It may lack an adjustable "Wood or Metal" stroke selection button like my big corded Porter Cable Sawzall has but that does not limit this tool's excellence. I Highly Recommend this tool. Buy the best quality blades to go with it for top results!

I hope you’ve found the information and my review helpful.

This is the cat's meow!! This is a great tool. It's compact, powerful and easy to use. With new blades, it cuts through metal like butter! Same with wood. I doubt I'll ever use my hard wired, plug in Sawzall again!

It's a tank! Does everything I've asked of it (limb-sawing, hack-sawing, surface-scraping, wood-butchering, carcass-builds) with excellent, consistent power. It's already paid for itself by virtue of its construction, ease of use, and durability/versatility. The only issue I could have is that (at my age 73) it gets a little heavy after a while of using it (out in the orchard, or when I have a lot of cutting to accomplish).

Absolutely the best reciprocating saw I have ever held. It has more than enough power to cut through anything you need it to.. but the BALANCE is just unbelievable... It just FEELS good in your hand.... I've owned many sawzalls in my career as a plumbing contractor... and most required 2 hands to properly line up a cut... which can be pretty inconvenient when you are at the top of a 10-foot ladder.. (I like to hang on with one hand)
This tool is a true 1-hander!!
