Metabo HPT 10-Inch Single Bevel Compound Miter Saw
- Miter Saw
A solid lightweight option for portable miter cutting, though the single bevel design means extra flipping compared to a dual bevel saw.

Overview
A 10-inch single bevel compound miter saw with a 15 amp motor and a 5,000 RPM no-load speed, built lighter at 24 pounds than most miter saws in its class for easier jobsite carrying.
Where the larger dual bevel saws trade weight for two-direction bevel cuts, this Metabo HPT keeps things simpler and lighter: single bevel from 0 to 45 degrees to the left only, paired with a wide 0 to 52 degree miter range both directions. That single bevel setup means flipping the workpiece for an opposite angle cut, but it keeps the saw compact and easier to move between jobs.
- 10-inch single bevel compound miter saw
- 15 amp motor, up to 5,000 RPM
- Lightweight at 24 lbs
- 0-52 degree miter range, 0-45 degree bevel left
Who it's for
Fits users who value portability and a lower weight tool over dual bevel convenience, such as jobsite carpenters who move the saw often or DIYers who do not need frequent opposite-side bevel cuts. It is not the pick for anyone regularly cutting crown molding on both sides without flipping stock.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Lightweight at 24 lbs for easier transport
- Wide 0-52 degree miter range both directions
- Vice clamping system helps secure the workpiece
- 5-year warranty from Metabo HPT
- Single bevel, left side only, requires flipping stock for opposite angles
- 10-inch blade gives less crosscut capacity than a 12-inch saw
Performance notes
The 15 amp motor spins up to 5,000 RPM no-load, and the improved miter scale plus a vice clamping system are meant to hold the workpiece steady for accurate cuts. At 24 pounds, it is noticeably lighter than many 10-inch miter saws, and the miter range covers 0 to 52 degrees to both the left and right, while bevel is limited to 0 to 45 degrees on the left side only.
