This is an updated review after owning this saw over a year. I do carpentry for a living and also build fences. I use this saw all week long every week. It's is simply amazing. It's heavy but durable and does a great job cutting straight lines. It's easy to swap blades out fast. I had Bosch circular saws in the past and this saw makes the Bosch feel like a toy saw. The only drawback back, is it do Otis · acmetools.com
