Milwaukee sawzall "The Hatchet"
In article ,
says...
I noticed Milwaukee makes a compacted version of the sawzall with a rotating
handle. My old sawzall just died and this one is intriging as I consider a
replacement.

Does anyone knows if this cuts as well as the traditional sawzall? or this
is a light duty tool?
I have one and it has quickly become a favorite. The Hatchet and my
cordless Dewalt are the two recips I take to the job. When folded in half it
can fit in the space between two studs 16" apart. It can be switched from
straight cutting to orbital (for faster cuts in wood). The blade release is
the best I have encountered, not sure if the other Milwaukees are the same. I
use mine for remodeling and actually prefer the shorter, 3/4" stroke. It is
much easier to make a cut in a tight spot without the blade jamming into the
back of a recess.
