Tools and Hardware Reviews of Milwaukee 48-08-0401 Quik-Lok Job Saw
Customer Review: Job saw gets the job done.
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this saw along with a 12-pack set of Milwaukee blades. I have no problem cutting through drywall, screws, pvc, wood, anything that needs cutting. The threaded end is also nice, you can screw in a standard broom handle and get a servicable pole saw to add some reach. Plus whenever I spring for the reciprocating saw I'll be able to use the same blades which is nice. I think its a perfect product for what it does.Customer Review: Solid, Versatile, Outstanding Value!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using the Milwaukee 48-08-0401 Quik-Lok Job Saw for several months now around my new house for a variety of purposes. Chief amongst those has been cutting holes in old lath and horse hair plaster walls. With the narrow point of the included blade, I can saw holes with only a couple of small pre-drilled pilot holes and minimize the damaging to the surrounding plaster.
What makes the saw excel, however, is the versatility. Changing the blade is simple, quick, and never compromises the sturdy feel. I purchased this saw with the blade kit (Milwaukee 49-22-1129 12-Piece Ultimate Demolition Sawzall Blade Set) and I have used it to make easy and controlled cuts through, wood, metal, plaster, dry wall, rigid foam, etc. I have also since purchased the Milwaukee Sawzall which can utilize the same variety of blades, increasing the value.
The other day after a snow storm, I had to perform some emergency pruning on a tree with branches leaning against my neighbors house and blocking the drive way. I remembered the threads on the end of this job saw and attached it to an old paint roller handle. Changed the blade to a long wood cutting blade, and was able to easily prune the small/medium sized branches in the tree. Perfect example of this tool's ease of use and versatility. Never thought I'd need it for that purpose, but there you go....5 stars.
Customer Review: Milwaukee job saw is the deal
Summary: 5 Stars
It is a great handy tool that I am very pleased with. I have bought many other cheaper job saws that didn't hold up or last through the job I was doing. The blades are a little on the high side to replace but it evens out money wise in the end because the blades last so much longer and much more durable then the cheaper ones so I don't have to keep buying more blades job after job. I also like that I can use the different blades from my Milwaukee sawzal on the jab saw and vice versa. I highly recommend this product and company.Customer Review: Milwaukee Tools the best there is at this price.

I own a large selection of Milwaukee tools and a few Hilti tools. IMO, getting Milwaukee products are like getting Hilti products for a little less money. However, if you work in punishing, demanding conditions everyday, all day, then Hilti may be the way to go for the very long haul. For 90%, Milwaukee is a good betCustomer Review: hefty

First thing I noticed is how heavy it is, before I opened it. If you can manage to get through the adult proof packaging without opening an artery, put it in your hand. It feels perfectly balanced, so the weight is a non-issue. The blade locks in place easily. I can't wait to try it...
