I’m looking for a 9″ plus circular saw but it looks like the 235mm DeWalt is the only one they do and is an old saw.

Makita do 9, 12 and a 16 but there not black and yellow!!!

Is there any out there but just not available in the uk?

Is the Bosch GKS 235 not available in UK ?

Sorry the only ones that come to mind right away are Makita, Festool and Mafell and Milwaukee, though I haven’t researched any recently.

Makitas the most known for big timber saws

To follow up on what Jimbo says, we have a monster Makita beam saw at work and it’s awesome. I’d definitely recommend it.

Carpenter at the log home reno that I’ll be on next week just bought the Makita 16″ – can’t wait to try that puppy out.

Lol @Jronman is that for clearing a build site in the woods and then turning the felled trees to dimensional lumber? My shoulders and arms hurt just thinking about that saw!

@Bremon it includes 2 side handles so 3 people can operate the saw. Also Milwaukee came out with the Squatchzall. Worlds largest recip saw.
