Kobalt has come out with a new 24V Max brushless dual bevel sliding miter saw, KMS 0724A-03, with a 7-1/4″ blade size and 2×14 cutting capacity.
The new Kobalt cordless miter saw features an aluminum table, which they say makes it lighter for easier transport. The base also has a built-in 6″ extension table (although we’re not quite sure what that means).
It’s bundled with a 6.0Ah Li-ion battery and a charger.

- 4500 RPM
- Dual bevel with 48° max angle
- 50° miter range left, and 60° miter range right

First Thoughts
It’s nice to see the Kobalt 24V Max cordless power tool platform growing. They came out with several new tools and combo kits last year, and the lineup currently includes a sander, oscillating multi-tool, jig saw, one-handed reciprocating saw, a jobsite blower, a 4″ circular saw, several outdoor power tools, and of course “core” tools such as a drill, impact driver, circular saw, and reciprocating saw.
More tool options are good for everyone.
