I’m ready brother!!! World domination!
Don’t forget,
36v BL slide miter saw
3 high torque impact wrenches
6.0Ah batteries
36v/AC hybrid vacuum
And of course these 3 reciprocating saws
I also hear through the unofficial grapevine that they have an X2 7″ grinder in the works and a new BL chainsaw
Why do you guys do this to me?! [emoji24]
Looks like I better get a bigger toolbox!

Just a fellow makita fanatic/blogger. I’m not sure where he got his info or how accurate it is.. he would have no reason to make it up though .. also no clue of timeline..
Metabo just showed a 7″ grinder at a recent event. I’m sure makita is going for it also
Metabo showed a 9 incher i believe ? 🙂 any chance you could point me towards that blog ? ^^
Well I’m loving my BL 18v Makita grinder, x18 Chainsaw, brushless barrel grip jig saw and my 18v 5″ ROS. Guys…..YOUR FREAKIN KILLIN ME!!!!
Hahaha hard to resist it Chris ? 😀

Ooh, I didn’t know it was a 9″ that’s slick. That is a dual battery also isn’t it. Do you know if it’s 36v like Makita or 18v with double the AH rating?
About the makita 7″ It was a just a private message conversation I was having with the guy so nothing to read..sorry man. No detail was talked about.. we were chatting about new releases and he mentioned he had heard it was in the works. Thats all

The metabo cordless 9 inch grinder can work with a single 36v lihd battery or by using an adapter with 2 18v lihd batteries 🙂

I wonder if they are giving makita a kickback for using the old adapter X2 style system. Makita must have had that idea patented.
When the new recip saws get here just sell both or at least one of your current 2 and do the same for the circular saw. Sell any corded models you might have. The 6.5″ BL saw is incredible. I also have the X2 7.25″ saw and the 6.5 is sooo much smaller, has a rafter hook and as much or more power than the 36v. It’s just a great saw. It’s what I reach for 95% of the time now.torontotoolman wrote:
