Users will benefit from the precision-machined hypoid gears, which are maintenance free and deliver more constant power than worm drive gears. Hypoid gears allow for more surface contact so more power is transferred over a wider surface, providing increased power and durability. In addition, hypoid gears are sealed in an oil bath so they never need maintenance. The saw has a large cutting capacity (2-3/8 inches at 90°) with a maximum bevel capacity of 51.5° and positive stops at 22.5°, 45° and 51.5° for quick back-and-forth changes.Ergonomic and Ease-of-Use Features Magnesium components allowed Makita to engineer a saw with less weight (13 pounds) that is well-balanced and jobsite tough. Additional design details include greater clearance between the rear handle and the blade case to provide a better grip for larger hands or for users with gloves, as well as a wider space between the blade and housing for a clearer view of the blade and measurement scale. Makita also engineered ergonomics and ease-of-use into the saw, including clearly visible depth and bevel markings and ergonomic hand grips to improve overall control while minimizing operator fatigue. The large rubberized levers provide quick, one-handed adjustments for more efficient work.Includes Ultra- Coated Framing Blade The 5377MG includes a Makita 7-1/4-Inch Premium Ultra- Coated Framing Blade with Advance Tooth Design. The "M" shaped tooth design features a two-pointed tip and two 10° bevel faces to maximize cutting performance for a faster, cleaner and longer lasting cut. The carbide tips are specifically set to withstand the harshest conditions such as plowing through nail-embedded wood. The blade is also ultra-coated to reduce heat and pitch build-up for faster, smoother cutting, with special Makita heat vents strategically set to dissipate heat and increase performance. The 5377MG also include a blade wrench attached to the saw for fast and convenient blade changing.Engineered for a Range of Applications The 5377MG is built for framing walls, floors and roofs using a range of dimensional lumber and dense engineered lumber, including LVL, PSL and I-Joists, headers, and microlams; as well as ripping panels such as plywood, OSB, particle board, and dense structural panels. Other applications include plunge and bevel cutting, as well as masonry and metal cutting. The 5377MG is just another example of Makita's commitment to innovative technology and best-in-class engineering.About Makita's Magnesium Series Magnesium components are stronger and lighter than conventional materials, resulting in saws that weigh less with improved ergonomic features.

  • With the right blade will cut like a grizzly bear.
Very powerful professional saw that has taken me through a lot of projects. Lighter than my old worm drive and a lot more powerful. Worth the extra money to get a good tool you can depend on.

  • Best high torque saw in my truck
First it’s Makita, which means designed and engineered. I retired my Skilsaw when this baby arrived. I drive it one-handed given the balance. Motors through framing and ply. With 60 teeth I sometimes even use it for trim!! Whaaat?!? In a world of battery tools, it’s really nice to have this in the truck when duty calls. Guess I’m saying Andy no regrets and nothing but joy. ... show more

  • Beast
If you’re expecting this to be light and nimble then you have no idea what you’re buying or why. They mention how it’s lighter from the magnesium several times in the description, I couldn’t imagine how they could have made it heavier. It’s exactly what I wanted, a heavy duty top quality work horse. If it was any lighter it would be cheap, flimsy and harder to control with surgical precision like it is. If you have little girl arms and hands this beast will probably make you cry. I almost went with the considerably less expensive Ridgid worm drive, but after researching all the advantages of a hypoid gear over a worm gear the final choice required little thought. They only complaints I have are in the product description: 1) I wish they provided the actual at the blade torque specs on these. It would make comparative shopping much easier. 2) The description specs state in 2 different boxes that this is “brushless”. It absolutely is not a brushless motor. I did how ever know this was wrong before I ordered it because in the picture you can clearly see the 2 black caps on the sides of it for replacing the brushes. ... show more

  • Happy with Purchase
Its very heavy, doesn't seem any lighter than a worm drive. For most home jobs, a much cheaper "side" power would be better; that said, it appears a quality item. One "Amazon" thing--it came obviously a "re-packaging" and NO PACKAGING LIST, you know, you compare what you pull out of the box to the list--be sure it is all there. Nope. So Ok, went on line and the packaging list came right up--no missing tools or what not. I don't see a "parts list", but honestly that would be easy to find on-line if I ever need it. The Operation Manual is there, everything is alright. Saw appears brand new. ... show more

  • Very Good Saw
Bought this saw for some cabinetry work. I am using it to rip 4 - 8 foot sheets of plywood lengthwise with a 140 tooth blade. Overview: A very hefty saw, the weight of it will surprise you and your arms will be sore after a day of using it. However, the handles and trigger are well designed and the saw never felt unwieldy. I also have not noticed any of the initial-start torque issues that other people have complained about. Perhaps they have corrected some of that problem with a revision to the saw design? Pros: * Perfect cuts - 8 foot cuts in plywood with a rip fence, blade never got bogged down. * Easy depth and angle adjustment * Ergonomic handle positions * Very sturdy base -- well reinforced, does not look like it would warp if dropped (although I'm not going to try it) Cons: * Heavy! * Angle adjustment could be a little more precise * Crap documentation - Bad for a novice user, experienced woodworkers will figure it out. * No bag provided. Pretty much every single tool I have bought in the last decade came with a sturdy cordura or other heavy mesh carrying bag. For some reason, Makita skimped the extra $4 of cost to provide one with a $170.00 saw... it's a bummer. Fortunately, my long dead cordless Rigid circular saw's bag fits this saw nicely. Invest in a carrying bag for transport and storage. ... show more

  • Outstanding rear handle circular saw
Makita 5377MG Magnesium 7-1/4-Inch Hypoid Saw Worm drive (or hypoid gear) saws are heavier than standard circular saws, but have several advantages. - their gearbox slows blade rotation to about 4400 rpm from the typical 5800 rpm (e.g., Porter Cable Sidewinder). Makita says this is to increase torque and cutting power. - the motor is parallel with the cut line, so the saw is long and relatively narrow. This increases tool control since there is less potential for the saw torquing away from the cut. E.g., it's easier to control this type of saw with one hand once the cut begins. - having the blade on the left side of the tool is a boon to right-handers, because you can see the blade as it cuts. I sold my first generation Makita hypoid saw recently, even though there was nothing wrong with it, and immediately purchased the 5377MG as its replacement. Pros: - as of this writing (November 2011) no saw of this type is lighter than this model's 13.2 pounds. Magnesium is used for the motor case, the blade shroud, the blade guard, and the baseplate. No doubt, other makers will soon make lightweight magnesium saws... - hypoid drives (see Customer Image) run cooler than worm drives, which allowed Makita to seal the gear box. As a result, no oil changes are ever required. Hotter running worm drive saws used frequently will require periodic gear-case oil changes and the gears wear faster - at least according to Fine Woodworking. - excellent ergonomics - well balanced and comfortable for my XXL hands. The rubber coated rear handle is really nice. - all control levers have a thick non-slip rubber exterior. It's quick and easy to set depth of cut, angle, and to control the blade guard. - the blade guard is much improved over my old hypoid; it doesn't seem to hang up, regardless of the material width, thickness, etc., and its placement is just right. - the baseplate on my 5377MG is perfectly flat. - cutting angle is easily adjusted between 90 and 51.5 degrees. To go over 45 degrees, there is a separate knob to turn, just in case you didn't mean to set it that high. - includes a stored-in-the handle Allen wrench for blade changes. - heavy-duty rafter hook is easily swivelled out of the way. - 10', 14 gage, 3-wire rubber cord with a superb cord protector at the motor end. Cord stays flexible even in very cold temperatures. - includes a 24-tooth carbide thin kerf blade Cons: - Steel reinforced magnesium or all steel, base plates, available on competing models, are less prone to bending (if dropped) than the all magnesium 5377MG plate, according to Fine Woodworking's Tool Guide. - There is a small torque-kick when it first starts - just be aware of it. Other: - there's no blade brake, but a spinning blade under zero load will stop in just over 3 seconds. - A rip fence is an extra cost item. If you need one, do an Amazon search on "makita rip fence". This is a con if you need a rip fence - for everyone else, it's lacking makes the tool cost less. Summary: This excellent lighter rear handle saw should be on your short list. ... show more
