SKIL MS6305-00 Dual Bevel Sliding Miter Saw 10 Inch

Overview

The Skil MS6305-00 is a corded 120V saw with a 10 inch cutting capacity, an 1800 watt motor, a 4800 RPM blade speed and a high speed steel cutting component, weighing 39.4 pounds.

The 10 inch capacity, bench-scale weight and 120V corded power point to a stationary or benchtop saw rather than a handheld model, sized for repeated straight or angled cuts rather than portable jobsite work. High speed steel is named for the cutting element, which affects blade choice and replacement rather than overall body durability.

• 120V corded power
• 1800 watt motor
• 4800 RPM
• 10 inch cutting capacity

Who it's for

Fits woodworkers and DIYers set up with a bench or stand who need repeatable 10 inch capacity cuts. Not a fit for anyone needing a lightweight, portable handheld saw, at 39.4 pounds this stays at a fixed station.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

1800 watts at 120V driving a blade to 4800 RPM gives the motor headroom for sustained cuts through the 10 inch capacity material without bogging down, typical of benchtop saws built for repeated rather than occasional use. The 39.4 pound weight adds stability during cutting but rules out easy one-person portability.
