Just to be pedantic, it's a trademark for the saw; the brand is actually
Milwaukee. 
Just to be pedantic, Milwaukee is the source.

Where does it specifically say "Sawzall" was stolen by Milwaukee Tools? Musta missed something?
"Stolen without permission" is my standard way of letting everyone know
that the quoted text that follows was copied and pasted (i.e. stolen) from
the link I provide without the permission of the author or owner of the
website.
If they want to come get me, my defense will be that at least I gave them
full credit for the text I stole.
Wow, paranoid are we?
Be serious. Do you really think I care? It's nothing more than a fun way
to say "I found this at this site."
I haven't even brought up the fact that you somehow thought those quotes
were about Milwaukee stealing the name Sawzall. I posted 2 definitions
of the word "brand" in response to dpb and you - somehow - read something
into that that didn't even fit.
