Why We Love This Deal
We’re still in February, the East Coast is getting buried in snow, and springtime might seem very far away. But now’s the perfect time to get a jump on your yard planning and outdoor projects before warm weather hits. Why? All kinds of deals on lawn and garden tools are already popping up: Right now, Walmart has an awesome discount on a Milwaukee pruning saw that’s ideal for clearing dead branches in your yard.
The Milwaukee M12 Fuel Hatchet 6-inch Pruning Saw is on sale for $122, a 40% discount from its normal price of $201. That’s a hefty markdown, and Walmart’s price for this model (No. 2527-20) beats out the list prices at The Home Depot, Acme Tools, and even Red Tool Store, which specializes in Milwaukee products.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Tool Series: Milwaukee M12
- Motor: Brushless
- Battery Included: No
- Also Included: Pruning saw, Oregon 6" bar and chain, scabbard, scrench
- Weight: Under 5 pounds
This saw is part of Milwaukee’s light-duty M12 line of power tools, and it’ll work with any M12 battery (a battery and charger are not included).
At under 5 pounds, this saw is easy to wield and transport, and its brushless motor offers reliable power output to cut through branches and brush. At 6 inches long, this saw is more compact than a full-size chainsaw, so it’ll fit into tight spaces more easily for precise cuts, and the variable-speed trigger helps you fine-tune its power as you cut.
It’s equipped with an automatic oiler to keep the chain moving smoothly, and although it’s listed as a bare tool, it actually comes with a scabbard to cover the chain and Oregon bar and a scrench to adjust the chain tension.

What Shoppers Are Saying
First, let’s address the negative reviews in this Walmart listing. They’re not for the tool itself, but for a specific seller—Vipoutlet—that has allegedly defrauded shoppers by sending faulty or fake merchandise. Before you click buy, take a moment to look and see who the seller is. When tools have come from other sellers, reviews have been very positive.
As for the saw itself, shoppers say it “saws it all,” and it’s the “perfect tool for light yard cleanup.” One shopper who works for a utility company clearing tree branches away from power lines recommended this saw for homeowners, saying it’s “great for household projects” and trimming branches from trees and bushes.
At $122, this Milwaukee M12 pruning saw is nearly $70 cheaper at Walmart than anywhere else on the internet—but there’s no telling how long this deal will last. Toss one in your cart ASAP before it jumps back up to full price.
