Style: 16-5/16" Circular Saw
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.

As intimidating as it first seems, this couldn’t have been easier. Cut through treated 6x6s like butter. Left a beautiful smooth finish. Some say it’s under powered but I couldn’t tell. I wasn’t in a hurry and simply took my time. It naturally follows your line really well.

I bought this saw to replace a Makita beam saw that I picked up used. It is a big improvement over the Makita, mostly because of the design of the shoe. I could never get the Makita to cut reliably square because the shoe was flimsy stamped metal and would flex. The shoe on the Skilsaw is constructed rock solid and will keep the blade square in the cut every time. It is also noticeably lighter than the Makita. I haven’t had any of the performance issues that other people mention - I bury it in tough white oak at full depth and it cuts fine. That said I’m keeping within 1/32” of my cut line so I’m not pushing it super fast. Also I really appreciate the design of the molded plastic saw holder, which has a low center of gravity (less likely to tip over in transit) and bails to lock the saw in place.

Great saw. Solid construction. Cross cut are plenty powerful enough. Could stand a little more power for rip cuts. You just can’t go to fast. I’m not sure why the blade is on the left but it didn’t cause me any problems

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.
