Milwaukee M18 FUEL 7-1/4″ Circular Saw with ONE-KEY 2835-21HD

This is Milwaukee’s traditional style 7-1/4″ circular saw. What I mean by that is that it’s not a “rear handle” “wormdrive” style circular saw. Just the normal variety – and Milwaukee says this model is best in class. They claim “this saw is the most powerful and fastest-cutting 7-¼” Circular Saw on the market.” Those are some pretty serious claims and I believe them based on their proven track record in the past with previous launches.

This model actually was released not long ago however this builds upon the 2834-21 model in that not only does it share all the same features that made it great like strong performance, but also adds smart features.

These smart features include ONE-KEY functionality. This gives you the ability to sync the tool wirelessly with your mobile device or desktop using the free ONE-KEY app. You can also identify where and when the tool was last seen, track the usage as well as service intervals to maximize uptime and maintain inventory.

They also added VACLINK which is their tech that controls a VACLINK compatible dust extractor wirelessly. It also offers Milwaukee’s AUTOSTOP safety features that adds advanced kickback prevention. It can detect severe kickback and automatically shut the tool down to prevent user injury.

Other carry over features include the strong performance previously mentioned with 6,000 RPM under load. That’s better than “no load” which means this saw can maintain strong performance and RPM even under load. 2-5/8″ max cut depth at a right angle, can bevel up to 57 degrees, all magnesium guards and shoe, LED light, has the ability to connect to vacs, electric brake, and rafter hook.

Runtime is solid with up to 750 cuts per charge with a Forge HD12.0 battery. It’s also almost 1 lb lighter than the previous gen at 7.9 lbs baretool. It weighs 11.2 lbs with the FORGE HD12.0 battery.

It will launch August 2026 for $549 as a kit and $349 as a baretool.
