I finally take a look at the New Makita 40v 165mm Circular Saw. That's 6.5 inches if you prefer. Is it better than the 125mm and the 185mm?

Thank you for using the same new blades in this review, it makes so much sense during the comparison to each other to see difference

@TakamiWoodshop 3 года назад

the five degrees back bevel rule of 1672...gets ya every time. I've had that 18v only 42mm 45 degree cut headache a few times. Real ballbag to have to finish off with a bandsaw and often you need a chisel as well.

@ParisCarpentry1971 3 года назад

I’m having a hard time seeing myself departing from my DHS680. What a great saw!! LOVE IT!!! and the blade is on the left side, very very handy!! When Makita 40v comes out with a left sided 165mm blade, I would consider it. Until then I will continue watching your really great reviews of Makita power tools. 👌👌👌👌👌

@robertrada4783 3 года назад

I’ve been speculating for some time that they have a blade left 6-1/2” in the works. I got tired of waiting and imported the 165mm.

@ParisCarpentry1971 3 года назад

@@robertrada4783 I understand your frustration!! I was like that but i have calmed down quiet a bit! Tools are becoming more and more pricy!! Hopefully within the next 12 months they will come out with a blade left (other than their worm style saws) 6 1/2 circ. saw and maybe with a handle. Oufff! Probably asking for too much from Makita.

@phillipfletcher5967 3 года назад

Haha your like the only other person that understands the left handed bladed. I hate looking over the saw to see what's going on..I'm right handed. So looking straight at the blade makes such sense. I have 36v as well but blade is on the right arghhh

@robertrada4783 3 года назад

@@phillipfletcher5967 Here in the states, I reckon most builders prefer blade left as about half of them (framers specifically) have exclusively used a worm drive their entire career. Every-time a normal blade right sidewinder or beam saw makes an appearance here, everyone comes out of the woodwork to bitch about it being on the “wrong side”. The DHS680 (despite being made in the UK for certain markets) was definitely an appeal to North America. I’m going to have to imagine if they do a 165mm, it will be blade left and it will have a handle. All of their saws have handles outside of Japan (afaik). Although, the handle is on the motor, so what use is it anyway? 😅 I’m pretty unique in this country for preferring the blade right arrangement. Just like the blade left fans, it’s simply because it’s what I’m used to.

@Buerinni 2 года назад

i need them to make a 6 1/2" xgt ,left blade,track compatible base saw with removable base to flush cut to bottom plates.....asking for too much?!?!?!?!? LOL but if they made this saw on the left id purchase as well....cheers from canada

@robertfowler3457 3 года назад

So frustrating that most of the new 40v saws don't have the base plate setup for use with the guide rails or at least an option for the gudie rail adapter, HS003G, base plate not compatible and can't be used with the rail adapter!!!!

That cardboard box it came in can be recycled into a front handle. It's A whole different ethos.

This looks like it could be the one of the most well rounded skillys on the market, not too heavy, good depth of cut, good power. What more could you want? Other than a handle... I wonder if they removed it to improve visibility to the left side of the blade? (for right handed people) great video 👍

@robertrada6040 3 года назад

Some markets they have a handle others they do not. Look up the American “sub compact” 6-1/2” saw. The housing is a Japanese 5” saw but they modified the mold to take the separate handle piece.

@robertrada4783 3 года назад

@@robertrada6040 Strike that, I just looked at the sub compact saw and it’s pretty much it’s own thing other than the battery placement being similar. Nonetheless, all of the saws outside of Asia have handles and most of them don’t in Asia.

@CrookedSkew 2 года назад

I strongly recommend not screwing or bolting anything load bearing to the case. It will cause the plastic to either deform or crack and you may do your hand / wrist a grave disservice while operating the tool. I've seen Stihl screw their power washer hose reel to their case and because it was load bearing it made complete and utter shite of it during shipping. Same happened for the replacement so it's highly unlikely it was due to man-handling. I consider it a fundamental design flaw. The plastic on the Stihl wasn't the same quality as your saw but it was almost 5mm thick. Think about what happens if you exert serious downward force on a handle that is little attachment to frame or worse, do that during a kickback event? Anyway, my 2 cent : )

@danyram89 3 года назад

I have the other black 18volt version of this and I wished it had more power even though I love it. This little saw might be the definite push to go all 40v 🤣🤣

Thanks for having the only English reviews of these amazing saws on RU-vid! I am trying to decide between 125/165mm and 18/40V. Looking to precision cut 7-12mm Ply/MDF/acrylic. Is 125mm preferably for thinner materials? TIA

@maccoretti 2 года назад

18v HS631D also has the same base plate/guide screws. I have one in black and is very similar to HS001G.

@ryanmachan1302 3 года назад

The lack of a front handle is just a Japanese market specific thing. When this is deployed to other markets it will have a front handle. Almost every saw Makita sells in Japan (40V, 18V, 14.4V, corded) is without a front handle because of the way woodworking/carpentry in general is practised there.

@eskimosilver 3 года назад

Oh that’s crazy, what’s the difference in style?

@tatsu5454 3 года назад

@@eskimosilver We like perfectly straight and square cut and almost always use guide when we use circular saw. Left hand is for holding guide. I think that's why our circular saw is much lighter and smaller than overseas models.

can't you use the metal saw blades with the slower speed? at least in theory they match the maximum RPM from the makita metal 150mm disc

Great review bloke! Would love to see this up against the equivalent Hikoki (I think it's the C3606DA). I'm currently deciding which brand I should go with. Being a home gamer though, I don't think I'd be disappointed with either brands offerings. Have a soft spot for Makies though!

40v is nice line, but prices for those batteries are hard to overlook. realy heavy duty pros will go probably straight to 40v anyway, but all others average joes like me are more than happy with current 18v brushless line and i hope they will leave at that and keep evolving this tools also in the future..

@lamdog24 3 месяца назад

The left hand blade HS012GZ doesn’t seem to have the same features as this one. Two years later, which would you go with? I’m so used to a smaller left hand blade but I really like this one.

Milwaukee doesn't include a rip fence either. I had to order 2. Ended up being a huge pain.

@grogsmooth 8 дней назад

Would you buy this same model again over the HS012GZ which is near equivalent here in NZ? Even though it has the front handle it seems to me the cutting depths of the NZ model are worse than 18V

@jeffsteel4504 3 года назад

Do you know if Makita will bring out another saw with the blade on the left?? It’s the only thing holding me back from upgrading to this!

@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL 3 года назад

In time they probably will, but I don't know when. All the 40vs so far are blade right.

@robertrada4783 3 года назад

They brought out a Skillsaw shaped XGT saw and a Big Foot shaped XGT saw just for the United States of ‘Murica. The lack of a worldwide 165mm product, the history of american pleasing 18v blade left 6-1/2” saws, and finally the heavy US pandering with the NA launch all led me to believe we’d see a blade left 165mm xgt by now. However, they’ve been kind of all over the place with their quarterly booster shots, and COVID has actually just finally had an effect on their ability to deliver new product in a timely and reliable manner (the US second and third round of XGT are on the website but delayed indefinitely). So, it’s an “I can’t imagine they wouldn’t” and a however “anytime between tomorrow and the next two years”.

@colewagner81 Год назад

I know this video has been out for awhile, but I thought I would ask anyway. Can the arbor on this saw be swapped to accept 5/8" arbor blades? Not too many 20mm on shelves here. Would be really cool if it was like the 40v track saw that has the capability to do both by flipping the arbor. Not sure if that's only on US market saws.

@germanjimenez2175 Год назад

@markhedquist9597 3 года назад

Awesome saw! I like some of the improvements/variations. The thicker metal bracket thingy for the depth adjustment is a great idea. I hope it stiffens the base plate from swaying when using a straight edge guide. I've had issues with slight waviness with other saws. The non-handle makes the saw look more sleek, and allows for a convenient logo placement. Deeper depth of cut... excellent! The back end looks quite cool, too. More slender and tidy looking with the sideways battery mount. Makita is really pumping out the saws. I have yet to take the 40v plunge (haha). I'm fairly sure my first purchase will be the miter saw (kit). $850 gut punch. Tell me it's worth it. It is, isn't it?

@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL 3 года назад

The 10" and 12" mitres will be out soon...

@michaelspedding2758 3 года назад

@robertrada4783 3 года назад

You may not be able to tap into that spot in front next to the motor as it’s about the shape of a potted and heat sinked control board. If you look at the 125mm, it has the same rectangular shape next to the motor but on the other side where I suspect it’s own mother brain lives.
