20V MAX XR Cut Off Tool, Brushless and Compact, Bare Tool Only (DCS438B)

Very nice small cutoff saw from DeWalt. Plenty of power for abrasive blade. Easy to handle. Did not notice vibration in use. Looks to be very durable.

Wow, this small cutoff tool is incredibly impressive! I used it to cut my entire patio, and the results went beyond my expectations. The powerful performance it provides makes it ideal for cutting stone and masonry easily. Its lightweight design and simple handling have quickly made it my favorite tool for working with stone. If you're searching for a dependable, efficient tool that gets the job done effortlessly, this is the one you need! The cordless feature is also a bonus. The tools cut accurately, and the speed is fantastic. The battery lasted through cutting 10 stones before needing a second, but they charge so fast—just keep a couple handy.

Tool does exactly what is intended of it. Easy to operate and a must have for anybody who does and any kind of mechanical or building work. Very efficient and makes jobs much simpler.

It’s a great and handy little tool for small jobs.

The DeWalt 20V MAX XR Cut-Off Tool is not just a niche specialty tool; it is a compact powerhouse that has become my most used and favorite grab-and-go device in the truck. If you are looking for a small tool that can tackle huge jobs with minimal fuss, this is it. Unmatched Versatility in a Tiny Package What makes this tool truly shine is its ability to handle virtually any material you throw at it. I’ve been blown away by its capability and have used it on countless projects: Wood: Quickly trimming down fence pickets or cutting away damaged wood sections. Tile/Concrete: Cutting intricate curves in floor tile or making shallow, precise cuts through concrete patches and mortar. Metal: Slicing through bolts, rebar, or light gauge metal sheeting. Changing blades is fast, and the small size allows you to get into places where a full-size angle grinder would never fit. Power, Portability, and Endurance Despite its small form factor, the brushless motor and XR technology deliver plenty of torque. It chews through material much faster than you’d expect. The fact that it's so compact means I rarely bother dragging out bigger, corded tools anymore. It’s always charged, always in the truck, and always ready for that unexpected cut. The convenience factor of this tool is what truly sets it apart. If you are a professional or a serious DIYer who needs reliable cutting power across multiple materials, this is a 100% essential purchase. It’s a small tool that performs like a giant. Highly recommend!

Would have given it a 5 star but it was shipped in bag... Shipping was fast.

This little cutter is awesome 0 kickback. It shuts down before it will twist and snap the cutting disc. You just gotta let the tool do the work. One hand cuts are common and easy. Compared to a 4 inch grinder with no blade guard. It's balance is spot on even with a 6 ah battery. I doubt I'll ever use a 4 inch or 6 inch cut off wheel again. It blasted through a 1/4 steel plate with very little effort. Almost no vibration at the start and throughout the cut. Feels very safe. The DeWalt all metals disk it came with didn't do that great on 1/4 aluminum. It started plugging up the disk. Which is common w cutting aluminum. This thing would be perfect for using in the field. Cutting tops of posts.. whatever. Totally worth it. After using it once. I would pay double what I paid. It's that good.👍

Very handy tool. Not powerful enough to be used as a saw but works great for quick cutting of most household materials. Cuts plastic PVC pipe with ease.
