Milwaukee 6310-20 18-Volt Ni-Cad 6-1/2-Inch Cordless Circular Saw

Final got out to get some new 6.5" blades. Works very good & not too heavy.

I bought this expecting it would work with the same battery I use with my Milwaulkee Lithium-Ion Hammer drill,
it does! The saw is light and powerful with the Lithium battery, the charge lasts a long time for a cordless.
This saw comes with (1) ONE 6 1/2 CARBIDE blade, the other review here makes one wonder. No case, no battery. Blade is on the LEFT side. Also, it's made in the USA!

This is my first purchase of a cordless circular saw. Because of that I can't say how this one matches up to other brands. The pros: medium sized therefore lighter weight than corded saws, lots of power - no problem cutting throught 2x4's or 1 inch oak, cordless - no connecting extension cords, it has a push button blade lock for easy blade replacement, safety trigger release - for those with kids, batteries seem to last about as long as my cordless Hatchet Sawzall (probably could crosscut about 50 -75 2x4's, and it will run on Milwaukee's 18 volt Regular or Lithium Ion batteries. The cons: blades (6.5 inch) can be take a little time to locate at some of the commericial big box do-it-yourself places (I know the big orange stores sell them) and it has a left sided blade - not a really big deal since it works very well right handed , it just takes a couple of practice cuts to know where the blade is cutting like all saws.
