Thanks all who contributed to this thread. I am considering a kss60 cordless to complete my stable with the kss80 corded and kss40 cordless as bookends. Does anyone have any input on the Metabo 18V 8.0 Ah batteries? I’m satisfied with the power and runtime for the 5.6 Ah on the 40, but I think 5.6 would be pretty underpowered for a blade that is nearly twice as big. I also would love to hear reports from anyone who has recently ordered from Tobias. Everything I’ve read points toward him as the go to guy for imports to NA. I imported one tool from the UK and the process was fine, but no one could definitively explain to me what to expect in the process. I’ve read stories of purchases being held “hostage” by US Customs. I would definitely order domestically if the price point were the same, but it is not.

Well, I reached out to Tobias today and was told that he cannot export anything Mafell to the US. Apparently there was some trade agreement that took effect in January of 2017. This agreement limits Mafell supply to US consumers from US distributors only. I guess so much for free trade...
