Our take on the Makita 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless Rear Handle 7-1/4” Circular Saw Kit, bag, with one battery (4.0 Ah)

This is Makita's 40V XGT rear-handle circular saw, a worm-drive-style cordless saw with a 7-1/4 inch blade and a brushless motor spinning at 6,400 rpm. The rear handle and blade-left layout give right-handed users a clear view of the cut line, and the 40V platform is Makita's answer to 60V-class saws from DeWalt and Milwaukee. It weighs about 11.7 lb with the 4.0 Ah battery, so it is heavier than a sidewinder but balanced for framing and decking. It suits framers, remodelers and serious DIYers already on or willing to join the XGT battery line.

What reviewers say

Owners and reviewers rate the XGT rear-handle saw as a strong cordless framing saw with corded-like power and a clear sightline. Most complaints center on weight and the cost of committing to the 40V battery line.

What people mention
  • PowerPraisedOwners say it cuts like a corded saw in framing lumber and doesn't bog down in wet wood.
  • WeightCriticisedSeveral note it is heavy, especially with the battery on, which tires arms in overhead cuts.
  • SightlinePraisedThe rear handle and left-side blade give a clear view of the cut line for right-handed users.
  • Battery platformMixedThe 40V XGT packs perform well, but owners dislike that they don't fit older 18V Makita tools.
  • Build qualityPraisedReviewers describe the saw as solid and well made, with smooth adjustments.

Questions and answers

Is this saw powerful enough to replace a corded circular saw?
For most framing, decking and sheet-goods work, yes. The brushless 40V motor holds speed in thick lumber, though very long rips in hard wet wood may still favor a corded saw.
Does it work with Makita 18V LXT batteries?
No. It runs only on 40V max XGT batteries, which have a different slide mount. Existing 18V packs will not fit.
How does it compare with a sidewinder saw?
The rear handle puts the motor behind the grip, which balances the saw and gives a clearer view of the blade on the left. It is heavier and feels different to use than a sidewinder.
What comes in the kit?
The saw, one 4.0 Ah 40V XGT battery, a charger and a tool bag. A blade is typically included.
Can it cut at an angle?
Yes. It has bevel capacity for angled cuts, adjustable with the bevel lever, plus depth adjustment for different lumber thicknesses.
