Default Milwaukee sawzall "The Hatchet"

Too bad you missed the close out sale last year at HD. I bought one for
around $40.00! While not as powerful as their larger saws it is quite
capable. We use it in our remodeling business. It is great in tight spaces.
The lower amperage had not been a problem for us. Plenty of power.

I bought one at HD during a clearance sale. Forget the price, but it
was a reduced price. I like that the 10' cord is removable (Quik-Loc),
the 1/4 turn blade latch, and adjustable foot. (no tools needed)

The ONLY fault I've found is the handle adjustment button is so close
to the thumb during work that you can hit it and the handle will slip
up (from pistol position to horizontal).

The button should be in another location to prevent this from
happening. Oh, well.

Great tool for what I use it for around the house.
