The most well-known Milwaukee power tool is the Sawzall, a reciprocating saw which features a narrow-ish blade that moves back and forth in a straight line (like the motion you use when using a hand saw to cut through something, but much faster). They’re great for use in demotion projects, easily and quickly cutting through a variety of materials (wood, metal, plastic, etc).
I purchased my Sawzall (a corded version) at a Lowe’s in Houston, Texas during a Black Friday deal in the late 1990s while renovating a house. When they say a Sawzall will cut through anything (usually different materials require a specific blade), they mean anything. For demolition purposes, it's one of the most useful tools you can own.
Milwaukee, of course, also makes other power tools in addition to the Sawzall, such as large concrete demolition equipment, hand tools and apparel. You’ll be able to find all those items on sale during Black Friday.

How to choose the best Milwaukee Tools for you?
If you don’t own a Sawzall, Black Friday is a great time to snag one for yourself. Look for the Sawzall Recip Saw Kit model #6509-31 or the 15 amp Super Sawzall Recip Saw model #6538-21 for corded options. For cordless, go for the M18 Fuel Sawzall Kit model #2821-22 with two batteries.
Also, check out any deal on cordless drills and drill bit and socket sets (you can never have too many of these). Don’t forget to snag replacement blades for the Sawzall while you’re at it.
