Customer Reviews

best pro saw
best saw for the pro framer and homeowner.
we are a high production building company, and we cut a lot of lumber!!
Have used almost every type of saw out there, all have not stood the test of time like the skil wormdrive.
Still have a Skil worm drive from years back, and still going strong, with 4 newer ones.
The weight of this saw , is to your benifit. if it kicks back, the weight will save an injury.light saws are dangerous when it come to this.
have had some fall from tall heights ( 2 strories) , and survived. The worst being a bent deck.

Also,great with a skil ripping guide.

I've seen in Home Depot, sometimes they don't have this saw in stock. They say reason being people, including some builders find it too heavy. not true.
it's just right.


and you can save your membership fee at the gym !!!!!

personally I like it better than the mag 77, being the weight diffrence.

Remember:when using any saw, best to keep your RPM's up, which means don't push saw so hard through wood that it bogs down.
Cut easy , using sharp blades.
this will keep your windings tempeture down, which in turn makes saw last longer.


Hope they never stop making this saw.

the best available
I purchased my first one 77 when I was 16 and used it for 9 years without a single problem. I never did a thing to it except change the blade and occasionaly install a new 50 foot cord in it as I would wear them out every few years. I used this tool 5 - 6 days a week every week for years and never had a single problem with it. If you want a tool that will get the job done every time then this is the one for you. If you want something a little lighter but just as strong, look at the Mag 77 Skilsaw. I have owned one of these for the last 9 years also. Nothing better than these two!!!

Nothing but five star reviews. It speaks for itself
Being a construction worker and a tool fanatic I must say this is the best saw on the market. At least 80 percent of constuction sites are occupied by the HD77 or it's brother the MAG77. I like the HD77 alittle better due to it's weight. I have yet to experience any heavy kickback and have yet to find any piece of lumber this won't rip through. This is a easy tool to use if you can handle a little weight (it doesn't take that long to get used to if you use lighter saws). This saw can handle being dropped several times and will last forever with an occasional oil. I don't have enough good things to say about this great saw.
