  1. Plumbers dont have very many holes to drill, I think once the plumbing m18 hole hawg is out its gonna be perfect for them.  Although the one I have eats like crazy with a 4 1/4" hole saw now so it would probably even work for them.

  2. how many holes can you drill with the hole hawg?

    With my aggressive drilling style I get 130 or so before the 4.0 starts throwing a temp code and shuts the tool down.  If I take it easy I can get around 200 on a 4.0, but thats drilling maybe a hole every 10 seconds vs a hole every couple seconds like a typically push it drilling a house.  This is using a 3/4"x18" bosch daredevil auger bit.

  3. Yep im looking forward to it, I burn up batteries fast using the hole hawg drilling out houses. Right now I just use 2 seperate chargers and they barely keep up on big houses so its gonna be nice when I can just have one and keep up. I really should be using the corded hole hawg still but I hate cords and the m18 is so much lighter.

  4. Cool review I have one with the quick change you actually dont have to push it down to insert the bit the bit can be pushed straight in.  You only need to push the collar to release the bit.  I love this thing its defiantly not as fast as a corded hole hog.  Me and a coworker drilled a house out, normally we are pretty close in speed and very competitive with it lol.  We took turns and the corded is still defiantly faster but you dont have to drag the cord around.  Also we use a 3/4" bosch daredevil auger and typically get 80 holes with it on a fresh 4.0.  The batteries really cant keep up to drill a whole house out.  I will say the 3/4" bit has seen quite a few houses and nails and its not the sharpest it could be. If you are drilling one circuit at a time than two batteries will keep up.  Its also great for small remodel jobs, etc now we dont have to drag a cord out.

  5. Cts204p is a bitching steel, one of the best..so i believe u on that. I aldo hear really good things about elmax and i have 3 knives in elmax but they are not daily users, havnt really used them hard yet.

     

    I have a zero tolerance 0561 in elmax its pretty decent but Ive had it chip out a little cutting tie wraps.  Havent had that problem at all with the cts204p.

  6. Kato i see that hinderer, workhorse i want one with a wharny blade... expensive tho. @yamatitan,,,i have 3 spydercos and vg10 steel that the blades are made of are probaby the best rust resistant steel of all my knives, but i will disagree on edge retention, s30v has been very good to me.

     

    Both of mine have CTS204P, which has been really good.  Havent had good luck with the microtech s30v benchmades seem better to me.  The microtechs ive had in S35v have been a big improvement but still prefer the spydercos.

  7. My microtech socom elite tanto satin with carbon fiber inserts:) love ite

    Have two microtechs and honestly they are pretty but when it comes to work I think the spydercos do better. The ergonomics are better the blades seem to hold a edge longer, etc. The microtechs stay in tye safe.

    Both the spydercos I carry cost just as much as the microtechs anyway. Both where just shy of 300 both where limited runs.
