I have a NIB 462 here, but to save one pound over a 440?
That 440 hybrid will mop the floors with that 462. That’s my bet.
The fastest hybrid I saw beat a ported 462 through a 24” cant by 5 seconds, consistently. Even the slower ones beat the 462 by 4 seconds.
It’s not all about speed, the AV and ergonomics on the 462 are very good. But for balls-to-the-wall power, the hybrid will win.
If you need one big saw, 461. It’s a quad port 460.
Well, don't think you can go wrong with either, but edge went to the 461 for me. The only thing that almost pushed me the other way was how much lighter the 462 is. With one in each hand it's obvious 462 is much lighter.View attachment 748793 .
I think long term the 461 is gonna be better saw imo. How light can you keep making these things and expect it to last. I think if I remember right the 461 has bigger bore . I'm old school there is no replacement for cubic inch.
There is reason saws like 044 046 064. 066 are still running 20 years later. Lets see theses new saws do it461 if it was me.. i am tired of new tech being great until it fails..
