I have been looking to get a new circular saw to replace the crappy I used to use. Someone offered to buy my the cordless Circular saw or the reciprocating saw. I almost bought the reciprocating saw but I figured I would use this more.

I wish I got brushless but someone bought it for me so it did not cost me a cent.

I think the blade is on the other side on the brushless model. I could be wrong but I like my blade on the left side since I’m right handed

thats strange, most 6 1/2″ are blade left, thats how my milwaukee is

I have seen a few switching to the left. I don’t understand why. But I was wrong about the brushless makita [External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied]

I really like it. It is power full for its size and I can run it for a long time without running out of battery.
