Only configuration a worm drive makes sense

Weight is not really something important in a saw like this ,you will never hold this thing over your head. I have used the makita equivalent and it is not even close,this saw kicks ass ,accurate clean single pass cuts on a 6X6 are no problem. I would like it if the auxiliary handles perhaps had positions on both sides of the saw . The saw keeper or plastic stand thing actually works well with 2 clips to hold it on when storing or in between cuts . Definitely want to check out their worm drive table saw next . Haven't tried the bevel adjustment yet . The blade that came with it cuts well , I may try some higher end blades as well . Love it

The saw is of great quality. The cut is accurate and will cut a maximum of a 16" clean.
The problem with this saw is the weight. The size required to make those bigger cuts adds weight to the machinery. Extra care is required when using this saw even by and experienced carpenter.

An amazing saw by any standard
Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2021
Verified Purchase

I ordered this saw to cut a stack of 4” oak slabs into stair treads and stringers.

When I received the box I thought ‘what have I done?’ When I pulled the saw out of the box I started laughing, it’s just that big. When I picked it up I thought ‘this is going to be a disaster.’ Then I made the first cut, and oh my goodness!

This saw is amazing to use. Ripped and cross cut 4” oak like I was cutting butter. No burns, no kickback, no binding, and no bogging down. Just smooth, beautiful cuts.

This isn’t a saw for knocking down a pile of 2x4’s, it’s made to cut timber, and it simply excels at that. Despite its size, it isn’t cumbersome or unwieldy cutting a timber that is setup properly and is stable. It simply does the job it’s designed to do. You cannot go wrong with this for cutting large dimension timber.

Awesome saw- Works & cuts perfectly
Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2019

I bought this to cut 6x6 cedar posts with one cut since I have a lot of them to do by myself. It does the job perfectly and still works nice after cutting about 40 posts. This is a beast of a saw but well worth it. It is big to hold but easily get used to the size and it is not real heavy. I do not have any issues maneuvering it while making a cut. This has definitely been a time saver for me since I do not have to rotate the posts (one cut and I am done). Comes with a nice case to set the saw down on after each use. Would definitely recommend for anyone that has a large project using large posts.

This thing is a beast, but you're not going to be using it all day. It's for those big cuts. The Makita design has been around for decades, while this Skil is a fresh modern design that is lighter, more ergonomic and has a blade brake.

I used it to cut and notch 6x6s for a post frame building. It was the easiest notching I've ever done with the best results. Next up is crosscutting some 3.5" TJIs. I can see it being useful for decks too.

Comes with a nice storage base that clips to the saw.

Accurate, powerful, handleable even for an old guy
Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2021

The media could not be loaded.

This review is for the SKIL 16-5/16 In. Magnesium Worm Drive Skilsaw. To be clear, I am a somewhat advanced user of home renovation tools, though I'm over 60 years old. I have to admit that buying the saw was somewhat daunting for me, both because of the price and I was somewhat reluctant to handle such a big beast. However, I have now used the saw to do some very heavy duty cutting, starting with cutting through 6" slabs of concrete, using a GRAFF 16" Laser Welded Diamond Blade. Typically, in 5 to 6 passes through very dense concrete, this saw was able to tackle the job without a single foul or kickback. The cuts I was making were through stretches of concrete from 2 ft to 18 ft in length. The saw does spin at a lower RPM than it's smaller siblings and does lose some RPM as it cuts dense concrete, however, the worm drive is very capable at maintaining power all the way through the job, given occasional breaks to allow the blade to spin up. The lesser RPM than it's smaller sibling (the 7-1/4" worm drive) is somewhat deceptive, as the actual speed that the teeth move at is somewhat similar to that of a smaller saw. I find the saw remarkably handleable and can even drop it into a concrete surface with a plunge cut maintaining terrific control; in the many times I've done this, I've not had a single kickback. I've also used the saw for cutting 6"x6" timbers with the supplied skill saw blade and have had great success with handling this very large worm drive saw. Moreover, the accuracy of the angle mechanism from base to blade appears to be extremely good and does not require adjustment with a square, which makes cuts through thick wood or other material more accurate. The magnesium alloy body, platform, and casing makes this saw both lighter and incredibly durable. The saw is not as heavy as it's Makita competition, which I've used, delivers more consistent power by its worm drive mechanism versus the sidewinder, spins at a higher RPM, and is quieter than the Makita as well as its Skilsaw 7-1/4 inch worm drive sibling. One of the features that makes this saw so easy to handle is the placement of the auxiliary handle for added control. The saw also has an excellent stand that comes with it, which makes it easy to store and also easy to change the blade. My single criticism of the saw is that the blade guard is a bit too stiff and can impede moving the saw fully into a cut. Perhaps this will loosen some with time but I do think that Skilsaw should consider putting in a lighter spring mechanism. This would also make retracting the blade guard for a plunge cut somewhat easier. Overall, however, I am very pleased with this saw, which has by its excellent function helped me overcome any reservations that I may have had about purchasing it. Overall, it has saved me hours of intensely unpleasant work, made the work more accurate, and has also saved me the cost of repeated rentals of concrete saws at my local home supply stores! For the money, and in comparison with its competitors, this saw is definitely a cut above, no pun intended.
