Like a hot knife through butter.

I've used many circular saws in my life. This blows them all out of the water! It's not light, and for one handed sawing, your arm will feel it at the end of the day, but it slides through lumber like butter. Can't believe I waited so long to buy it.

Quality of Skilsaw
Rating: 5
My last Skilsaw finally gave up the ghost.After 34 years of faithful service to me,I had bought it well used, I'm now 65, hopefully it will be as faithful for another 34 years and that I may be still using it if the Good Lord works it out for me! Thanks Skilsaw

Skil wormdrive the absolute best for me
Rating: 5
I have used this saw for years, this about my 5th one over about 40 years of hard use in building houses and other projects. In my day it was known as a 'west coast saw'. Because of its weight. Eastern builders like little lightweight saws. But the quality, the life and the cut these dates produce are almost unequalled. I get tablesaw quality cuts in fine work. This saw loved the sight of a stack of wood!

great saw. tons of power and torque. It cuts through everything I've thrown at it. I'm 6' 8" with big hands and this thing fits like a glove. Almost like it crafted just for me. It's a wee bit hefty, but you can use that to work your way through whatever material you're cutting.

Absolutely Awesome Saw!
Rating: 5
Best saw I have used to date. Excellent torque and handling. Love this saw. If I ever buy another it will be the Mag 77 version. I 100% recommend this saw to anyone.

Everything went smoothly

The only problem I found is that the specs show no specifications for a 100' extension cord.
