Look forward to the new innovations that Milwaukee puts into their new versions of old products. When you are a seasoned tradesman you realize the innovation that goes into these upgraded tools. With the bigger hole bits you have to be concerned with your battery power and this bit works well and stays sharp. I am really happy with the innovation and the results of this product! Thanks!

While traditional bi-metal hole saws still have their place in certain applications, for rough holes in framing members 3-tooth carbide hole saws, such as these Milwaukee Big Hawgs, can’t be beat.As a residential electrical contractor, boring holes in wood framing members is something I do most days – some days, much of the day. For many years, self-feed bits were the only real option to the professional for larger holes. While they also provide for rapid boring, one good nail strike and they require costly sharpening. They also require a lot of drill. The Big Hawgs, were they are only cutting the kerf of the saw out, require a lot less drill, making them ideal, with today’s cordless job. This 2-1/8″ model is literally a 3-4 sec. hole through 2x pine framing, with any of my 18v drills.Again, these are designed for rapid large holes through framing and other construction materials, and excel at it. If you require a more refined hole, or are drilling through thin, brittle material – such as vinyl siding – a traditional hole saw is what you seek.

This 4″ model is an 8-second hole through 2x pine framing with my M18 Hole Hawg. With the smaller drill pictured it was roughly a 15-second hole, as I dropped it down to low gear (which I would not recommend anyone other than a pro user doing – I only used this size drill to show how efficiently these Big Hawgs cut).Again, these are designed for rapid large holes through framing and other construction materials, and excel at it. If you require a more refined hole, or are drilling through thin, brittle material – such as vinyl siding – a traditional hole saw is what you seek.

Note for purchase, you need a Milwaukee 49-56-9305 arbor which is sold separately. Milwaukee’s saw blades have always held up for me longer than other brands. I know that they will hold up well and I won’t have an issue with it. This blade is no exception. I was able to easily cut through 2 different materials, one that I knew was littered with nails. This didn’t burn out and I’m confident will do the job on many more projects.

These new Milwaukee Big Hawg hole saws are nasty they will drill thru wood like butter, I tried mine out on a 2×4 and it went thru it in just a few seconds. I didn’t know what to expect with it only having 3 teeth but let me tell you it is a flat out monster! The carbide teeth on it are razor sharp and will make quick work of any job and the large gullets make ejecting chips faster and also when you go to pull the plug you drilled out the large gullets make it super easy! This only comes with the hole saw, you have to buy the arbor separate and I know they recommend arbor Model # 49-56-9305, however they did not have this in my store and I was eager to try this hole saw so I bought arbor model number Model # 49-56-7250 and it works great with the Big Hawg hole saw, I really like how it is a tool free removable arbor that is a great feature. I definitely recommend these hole saws they are monsters!

I have been a big fan of Milwaukee for a long, long time. So I have been a bit dismayed that they moved their production overseas. A couple of recent tools have been short of my expectations. But, overall they do still seem to distribute a great product. This “Hole Saw”, is reminiscent of their production standards of awhile back. Mind you, they still produce good stuff. Their product control standards are in place. But I digress, this “Hole Saw” weighs in at a whopping 2 Lbs packaged, this is a saw not for a small drill, so again my Milwaukee Hawg angled drill will power this saw through walls. Solid and impressive Hole Saw, still a fan.

I got this to drill a hole through stucco. It wasn’t easy, but this got the job done. It helped to spray some water in there while it was attempting to dig into that plaster.

In my video there, I am cutting through 3 12d common framing nails, which this thing just eats up. Just ease off a little bit, and let the carbide teeth chip away at the nail. That hole was still only roughly a 10-second hole. No discernible damage or wear was evident after doing this multiple times.

Leaves extremely rough cut in wood

Milwaukee never lets me down! These are amazing hole saws that pretty much rips through any material yet leaves a clean and perfectly honed hole. They aren’t overly heavy and works well with their m12 drills. My only wish is that they come in a bundle with several sizes and a kit that holds them all together. Overall these are by far some of the best hole saws you can buy.

Milwaukee tools just can’t be beat. This Big Hawk Carbide Hole Saw did the trick in cutting holes through the framing studs making it easier to cut holes for the new electrical and cable lines in a new structure. The cuts are fast and smooth. It does take someone with good strength to use it and after one attempt I turned it over to one of the guys to use (I am a small woman) and I watched. The electrician loved it and plans to replace his with this one. I haven’t used it on anything that had nails to cut through yet, but based on its performance on the 2″ studs, I am certain it will work well.
