The Milwaukee 2625-20 Hackzall is a one-handed cordless reciprocating saw built for the M18 18V battery platform. Its compact, light body and dual-gear anti-vibration system give it more control than a full-size Sawzall, and the motor runs 0-3,000 strokes per minute with a 3/4-inch stroke for cutting wood, metal and PVC. The QUIK-LOK clamp changes blades without tools and takes both Sawzall and Hackzall blades. It suits plumbers, electricians and remodelers working overhead or in tight spaces; against full-size recip saws it trades raw power and stroke length for reach and one-hand control. Owners rate it highly, and the tool is sold bare, so a battery and charger are extra.

Owners rate the 2625-20 highly and praise its one-hand control, low vibration and compact size for tight and overhead cuts. The main complaints are that it ships bare and is slower than a full-size Sawzall on heavy material.
The Milwaukee M18 HACKZALL is a cordless, one-handed reciprocating saw. It has a compact, lightweight design that gives more control and versatility than a standard reciprocating saw. The size allows cutting in tight spaces, and the low weight makes overhead work easier.
The motor delivers 0-3,000 strokes per minute with a 3/4" stroke length. It cuts wood, metal and PVC. A dual gear anti-vibration system (patent pending) adds control and accuracy.
The QUIK-LOK blade clamp allows tool-free blade changes and accepts SAWZALL and HACKZALL blades. A built-in LED light illuminates the work surface while cutting.
