Panasonic-- do a lot of EMT?, cutting the stuff by hacksaw kills the hands, and your knee if you lock in a ladder for the portable vise.
Panasonic has one hell of a metal cutting saw that is absolutely perfect for EMT!!!
And, believe it or not, the cordless drill selection is an awesome investment.
The 1/2" cordless drill/metal cutting saw kit was one of my best tool purchases ever. The drill has got torque as well as adequate rpm, bull-work or trimming it fits the bill.
The saw has cut down piping job times emensely, not to mention how my hands feel. Besides being able to cut a piece of pipe up in the ceiling in a jiff, as opposed to trying to use a hacksaw.
But, don't cut any kind of wood with that nice blade, or over 3/4" consistantly, rigid is not to good of an idea either. You can use it on anything, but too much heavy work kills the edge on the not so cheap blades in a heartbeat.
