This didn&#8217;t seem to affect our handheld manual tests when ripping and cross-cutting, however. What it speaks to is the power-to-weight ratio. This saw is rather heavy compared to the power it puts out. That makes you work just a little harder when using it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"537\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-24V-circ-saw-bevel-cut-800x537.jpg\" alt=\"Kobalt 24V circ saw bevel cut\" class=\"wp-image-164185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-24V-circ-saw-bevel-cut-800x537.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-24V-circ-saw-bevel-cut-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-24V-circ-saw-bevel-cut-768x515.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-24V-circ-saw-bevel-cut-770x517.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-24V-circ-saw-bevel-cut-650x436.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-24V-circ-saw-bevel-cut.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>On our full-depth blade test using four sheets of stacked 3\/4-inch OSB, the Kobalt stalled out after just 7 inches of cutting. Kobalt may have the protection dialed in a bit strong, but in either case, this is certainly a tough test. No matter how you slice it, the saw lacks a bit of oomph against well-known models like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/milwaukee-m18-fuel-circular-saw-2732-review\/\">Milwaukee M18 Fuel 2732<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/dewalt-flexvolt-60v-max-circular-saw-review\/\">DeWalt FlexVolt DCS578<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cutting through pressure-treated 2&#215;10 and stacked 3\/4-inch OSB subfloor, the KXCS 124 B&#8217;s performance wasn&#8217;t disappointing in the slightest. In particular, Kobalt does an excellent job removing dust and chips from the blade area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An included vacuum dust port adapter lets you avoid the mess when connected to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/best-osha-compliant-dust-extractor\/\">dust extractor<\/a>.

It&#8217;s not too difficult to shift and see around it, though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you cut left-handed, your line of sight to the blade is excellent. Assuming you want to track using the indicator notches in the shoe, you can trust them. At both 0\u00ba and 45\u00ba, I found them dead on my cutline using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/cmt-orange-tools-7-1-4-inch-zero-gravity-framing-blade\/\">CMT Orange Tools Zero Gravity<\/a> framing blade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I like the ergonomics of having the two handles directly in line with each other, it occasionally caused me to wander off my cutline just a little.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cutting free-hand, I was pretty much within 1\/8-inch to either side on crosscuts and varied a little more on longer rip cuts. I&#8217;ve tested dozens of other saws have been better&#8230;and quite a bit worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, slowing down a touch or using a straightedge when staying right on that cutline is critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cutting-capacity-and-drift\">Cutting Capacity and Drift<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Right out of the gate, we expect the Kobalt XTR circular saw to have a greater cutting capacity than the standard 24V Max model since it moves from a 6 1\/2-inch blade to a 7 1\/4-inch.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"501\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-24V-circular-saw-ripping-OSB-800x501.jpg\" alt=\"Kobalt KXCS 124B-03 24V circular saw ripping OSB\" class=\"wp-image-164187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-24V-circular-saw-ripping-OSB-800x501.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-24V-circular-saw-ripping-OSB-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-24V-circular-saw-ripping-OSB-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-24V-circular-saw-ripping-OSB-770x483.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-24V-circular-saw-ripping-OSB-650x407.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-24V-circular-saw-ripping-OSB.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s true, but only slightly. Kobalt managed to achieve an incredible 2 7\/16-inch depth of cut on their 6-1\/2-inch saw. With a larger blade size, the capacity only increases by 1\/16-inch to 2 1\/2 inches. That might be a compliment to just how good the previous design was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing I checked on the saw&#8217;s movement was how much friction the shoe added as I cut. Kobalt&#8217;s coating glides beautifully over wood. Makita&#8217;s friction is a bit lower, but some of the big names, such as DeWalt and Milwaukee, were noticeably stickier.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"543\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-speed-cutting-test-800x543.jpg\" alt=\"Kobalt KXCS 124B-03 speed cutting test\" class=\"wp-image-164189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-speed-cutting-test-800x543.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-speed-cutting-test-300x204.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-speed-cutting-test-768x521.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-speed-cutting-test-770x522.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-speed-cutting-test-650x441.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-KXCS-124B-03-speed-cutting-test.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The guard design can use some help, though. Where the inside portion of the guard angles, it flattens out as it becomes parallel with the workpiece and hangs up. You have to give it some extra motivation, either by pushing harder or manually working the guard until it gets over the top edge of the wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ergonomics-and-grip\">Ergonomics and Grip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As I mentioned above, we like the ergonomics of the inline handle design on the Kobalt 24V Max XTR circular saw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The front handle size and shape fill your hand well and give you a secure grip. Likewise, the rear handle&#8217;s contours and overmold make for a comfortable cutting experience. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"564\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-7-1-4-XTR-cross-cutting-2x10-1-800x564.jpg\" alt=\"Kobalt 7-1\/4 XTR cross-cutting 2x10\" class=\"wp-image-164184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-7-1-4-XTR-cross-cutting-2x10-1-800x564.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-7-1-4-XTR-cross-cutting-2x10-1-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-7-1-4-XTR-cross-cutting-2x10-1-768x541.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-7-1-4-XTR-cross-cutting-2x10-1-770x543.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-7-1-4-XTR-cross-cutting-2x10-1-370x260.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-7-1-4-XTR-cross-cutting-2x10-1-650x458.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.protoolreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Kobalt-7-1-4-XTR-cross-cutting-2x10-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The saw&#8217;s bare tool weight of 9.4 pounds is more than 2.5 pounds heavier than the previous model.

We&#8217;ve been impressed with how well the blade stands up to our aggressive testing schedule. You&#8217;ll note the low-mass plate design and unique tooth geometry. Together, these reduce heat buildup while handling nail impacts. CMT claims its framing blades perform up to 5X more cuts on nail-embedded wood than competitors in its class. Large gullets also store chips while you work and eject them as the blade rotation stops, leading to reduced cutting effort and better tracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-red-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/acmetools.pxf.io\/c\/2242671\/817692\/11565?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.acmetools.com%2Fcmt-7-1-4in-24t-wood-circular-saw-blade-25032407%2FS0000000000969.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">$11 at Acme Tools<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-cyan-blue-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/CMT-Orange-250-324-07-X10-FRAMING-Gravity\/dp\/B0CXY4NJ3V\/?tag=protoorev-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Buy on Amazon<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-price\">Price<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a bare tool, you can pick up the Kobalt XTR circular saw for <a href=\"https:\/\/lowes.sjv.io\/c\/2242671\/897039\/12374?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lowes.com%2Fpd%2FKobalt-XTR-24-Volt-Max-7-1-4-in-Brushless-Cordless-Circular-Saw-with-Brake-and-Metal-Shoe%2F1002274024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">$149<\/a> at Lowe&#8217;s.
