Our brand new makita lasted about 6 months then died, stihl for paving and concrete or partner for the brickies/labourers haha. Or partner for big k1250 active rail saw

TRUTH
Partner = Stihl
DIFERENCES
Partner is less resistant to external damage. Drop it 20x and something will brake, but partner has less vibration.
Stihl - bit more vibration, but is tougher.

Makita etc - goes in bin for 100x reasons.
Partner 1250 - use it if u have muscles like Rembo

Hehe I love our 1250 it's awesome cut straight through a 255x125 road kerb

Funny image jon Rambo jumping out a Russian hind gunship with a k1250 to cut some mujahedeen paving hehe

Yeah that's what I want......a bigger saw to cut through full kerbs in one hit.
