Why the ALLSAW Is a Gamechanger for Masonry and Beyond
The Challenge You Face On Site
Cutting masonry, brick, concrete, or even roots in a renovation or landscaping job has always been a trade-off :
-
Use an angle grinder or disc cutter - fast, but lots of dust, overcutting, risk to surrounding masonry
-
Use chisels or hand tools - slower, labour-intensive, risk of damaging adjacent material
-
Use conventional saws - may not reach fine profiles, may struggle with precision
On heritage or retrofit jobs, there’s no margin for error. You need clean cuts, minimal collateral damage, and safe, controlled operation or you risk lost time, costly rework, or regulatory dust issues.
That’s where the ALLSAW becomes more than a tool, it becomes a solution.
Over the next coming series of blog posts we’ll drill into how it works (and why that matters), but here are the core reasons it should earn its place in your tool arsenal :
-
Precision by design, not by luck
The ALLSAW’s dual reciprocating blades move in a way that produces clean, square cuts with minimal overcut. In practice, that means less chipping, better control right up against joints, and fewer surprises when you remove material. You get what you planned, not more than you bargained for.
-
Dust? Much less of it.
One of the biggest challenges in masonry or refurbishment work is dust, both for worker health (silica exposure) and for cleaner work environments. With the ALLSAW’s geometry and its dust boot / extraction options, airborne dust is dramatically reduced compared to grinders or rotary saws. That doesn’t just help compliance, it keeps the site cleaner, cuts your clean-up time, and creates safer working conditions.
-
Versatility across applications
You won’t just use it for brick cutting. The ALLSAW (especially with the newer BA200X cordless variant) can bridge into restoration, landscaping, trenching, root cutting, and more depending on blade choice. One machine, multiple job types. That flexibility is a real asset, especially on mixed-scope projects.
-
Efficiency built in
Tool-free blade changes, non-kickback cutting action, ergonomic handling. All these features combine to make real gains in speed, control, and operator confidence. On tight budgets and tight schedules, every minute counts.
