4.0 out of 5 stars Great Little Band Saw, February 14, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Porter-Cable 9725 Porta-Band 4.5 Amp / 6.5 Amp 2 Speed Portable Band Saw AC/DC Capable (Tools & Home Improvement)

I purchased a Porter Cable 9725 Porta-Band Saw Kit a few months ago and it has performed well. The compact right angle worm drive keeps the tool compact and quiet. Like most of the older Porter Cable tools the Porta-Band saw is made almost entirely of metal with excellent quality throughout.

The saw cuts cleanly through everything I put it up against. The two-speed feature allows the user to slow the saw down for hard material like tool steels. Porter Cable sells high quality bi-metal replacement blades that cut fast and clean. The supplied cutting lubrication stick really helps speed up the work and extend the life of the saw blade. My only reservation is the omission of a power lock button. When using the saw with the optional stand (the stand comes with a funky spring clamp) or when cutting through large stock a power lock button would be nice.
