Comparative Summary and Stihl TS420 Test
At 12:02 in
Best & worst Concrete saws & diamond blades from Makita, Hilti, Dewalt, Stihl, Echo and Husqvarna
What happens here
The video provides a summary comparison of the saws based on Frankie's feedback: DeWalt has no shock absorber, Makita is the stiffest, Husqvarna is the loosest, and Echo is in the middle. The presenter then discusses the value of the 'Shocker Blade' from Blades Direct, stating it's a top-performing blade. He also introduces the Stihl TS420, an older 2-stroke model, and highlights its unique top-handle design, which offers better control during certain cuts. Both saws (Stihl TS420 and Echo CSG-7410) are demonstrated cutting concrete blocks with dry blades, generating substantial dust. The Stihl is noted for its powerful and stable cut, similar to its larger counterpart, the TS700.
Goal: Summarize saw characteristics and demonstrate the Stihl TS420's performance.
