This circular saw marries muscular performance with an elegant, compact profile that feels balanced in hand. The cast magnesium shoe is a standout—sleek, resilient, and perfectly aligned for crisp, confident cuts. Style it with a clean bench setup and a dedicated vac line to showcase the integrated dust port and LED glow.

AI Review Summary:
Across multiple retailer reviews, buyers praise the saw’s strong cutting power, fast blade speed, and lighter feel versus older models. Common positives include accurate bevel settings, effective electric brake, bright LED, and the durable magnesium shoe. Many note excellent runtime and performance when paired with high-capacity M18 batteries, especially the FORGE/HD12.0 packs. Some neutral-to-negative feedback cites minor dust collection limitations without a vac attached and that it is sold as tool‑only. A few users mention the guard can feel tight out of the box but loosens with use. Representative quotes: “Cuts like a corded saw but lighter,” “Brake stops instantly—great for safety,” and “Wish a case or battery was included.”
