This one's worth the trip to the store.

  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers

About Product Overview

DEWALT built the 20V MAX XR Cut-Off Saw (DCS438B) for the jobs where a full-size circular saw is overkill but a rotary tool won't cut it - trimming bolts, cutting conduit, slicing through angle iron, and other metal-cutting tasks that call for a compact, controllable tool. A brushless motor drives the 3-inch blade up to 20,000 RPM, giving it enough speed to move through material fast without dragging down under load. The brushless design also means more runtime per charge and a longer-lasting tool overall, since there are no brushes to wear out.

The blade sits on the left side for a clear sightline on your cut line, and a spindle lock makes blade changes straightforward with the keyed system. Depth adjustment lets you dial in exactly how deep you're cutting, and the electric brake stops the blade quickly once you release the trigger - both details that matter when you're working in tight spots. At just 2 pounds for the tool itself, it's light enough for overhead work or extended use without fatigue. This is a bare tool (no battery or charger included), so it's a solid pickup if you're already running the DEWALT 20V MAX system.

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

Ask our counter. Or theirs.

Most hardware stores can do more than you think. If we can't help you, the folks down the street probably can — just ask at the counter.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a familiar banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
