This review is from: Stanley 20-045 15-Inch Fat Max Hand Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)

I live in South Florida and have lived and worked through three major hurricanes. In the aftermath, there is always a ton of ground clearing to do - downed trees and blown down fences have to be cut up and moved to the curb for pickup. Last Hurricane, no power for 13 days. I had one chain saw and the Fat Max. My neighbor took the Chain, and I took the Fat Max Saw. He did the large stuff, and I did limbs and trunks about as big around as your leg. He kept looking over at me like I was superman. He had never used the Fat Max, which just plows through wood like butter. No Kidding. Get this, on a single stroke, forward or backward, you can watch the saw sinking through the wood as the sawdust flies. It is amazing. After things returned to normal, I bought my neighbor a Fat Max. You. Wll. Be. Amazed. --Mykal Banta

This review is from: Stanley 20-045 15-Inch Fat Max Hand Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)

The Fat Max Hand Saw made quick work of everything I've thrown at it, even 6x6 landscape timbers. Aggressive cutting and a sturdy blade provide for easily guided straight cuts through hard woods and PVC as well. Highly recommended.

This saw was worth every penny. Sometimes you don't want to use the tabel saw, miter saw, or the circular saw to make one cut. That's when this saw comes in handy. This saw makes straight cuts in no time. And with no warping or bending. Best part is knowing that I will never have to buy another one of these. I can tell that this will last me a lifetime with it's quality construction.
