Makita DSS611Z 18V LXT Li-Ion Cordless 165mm (6-1/2") Circular Saw – Skin Only

Lightweight. Reliable. Ready to rip.
The Makita DSS611Z is the perfect all-rounder for tradies who need a dependable cordless circular saw that’s easy to handle without sacrificing performance. With a 165mm TCT blade, this saw delivers fast, clean cuts every time — whether you’re ripping framing timber, trimming sheet materials, or making bevel cuts up to 50°.

The lightweight 2.5kg build and ergonomic soft grip handle mean less fatigue on site, while the die-cast aluminium base plate ensures durability and precision cut after cut. Running at 3,700rpm, the DSS611Z is a no-fuss cordless solution that gets the job done.

At Cornwells Mitre 10, we rate this as the ideal saw for builders, chippies, and reno warriors who want a lighter alternative to the big rear-handle models but still need solid cutting power in their kit.
