Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The 270mm model is spectacular for cutting softwoods and is a little coarse for small joinery work and hardwoods. Tried it out on some hard pine and poplar, very nice.

No need to sharpen it, replacement blades are cheaper than paying to have a regular saw sharpened. Mine is still sharp but i like that i can just buy a new blade when it's time.

The long and light, rattan covered handle is easy to hold with one or two hands. Breaks down and fits in my framing tool box. One of my new favourite tools.
