Amazon.com Review

Trying to follow that pencil mark as you cut long stock with a circular saw can be tricky. The mark might blend with the stock if it’s painted, making it difficult to see. And certainly, there’s sawdust to contend with when it comes to keeping an eye on the cut line. Anyone experiencing these troubles will appreciate the laser guide on this 7-1/4-inch circular saw from Black & Decker. The saw’s on-board laser extends a bright, visible line across the work surface, offering a perfectly straight and highly visible cut line that’s easy to follow. The saw is powered by a beefy, 13 amp motor that spins the blade at 5,000 rpm’s, providing plenty of speed and torque for cross cuts and rips through all types of wood. The saw cuts smoothly through material up to 2-3/8 inches (the tool’s capacity at 90 degrees). With an angled cut of 45 degrees, the saw cuts stock up to 1-13/16 inches thick. Bevel adjustments from 0 to 45 offer accurate angled cuts. And, a calibrated depth-adjustment fine-tunes quickly and locks solidly for cuts through materials of varying thicknesses. Best of all, ergonomically designed front- and rear-assist handles with soft grips mean comfort and control on extended jobs and help stabilize the saw for tricky vertical cuts. The purchase is covered by a two-year manufacturer warranty. --Brian D. Olson

quality product        Rating:

quality built product, perfect for the homeowner. Only thing missing from the saw that wouldve given it 5 stars is a spindle lock for mounting the blade. Other then that, no problems with the unit.

Gift        Rating:

Purchased as a Christmas gift for my son-in-law. Great tool at a great price.

Plenty of Saw Here        Rating:

I took this saw out of the box, found that all the adjustments had been made perfectly at the factory, and proceeded to cut 96 linear inches of 1/8-inch plate steel and make about two dozen angle cuts across 1 1/4" x 1 1/4" angle iron. If this saw is not found on construction sites, it certainly isn't because it lacks the power. The laser has turned out to be a much bigger help than I thought it would because, since it projects well out onto the stock, it shows the slightest tendency of your hand to turn the saw. Since this can be corrected early, the cuts are straighter and the saw runs with less friction on the sides of the kerf, thus more blade speed and less chance of kickback generally. The general weight and balance of this saw, in addition the the locations and configuration of the grips, are excellent. It is a pleasure to use it. I can't imagine why I would pay more for a saw when this is available.

Does the Job        Rating:

I do small woodworking projects and repairs around the house. For me, this is perfect. Have had no problems making cuts. It's fast and easy to use.
