how do you find the Metabo? and where did you find it? i bought a 5" Makita in '91, runs perfect, but i've repaired the cord a few times & it's down to about a foot & a half long.
like you, i don't mind spending good money for good tools, just seems like whatever name is on it nowadays, their all coming from one place-cheap & built not to last
