I agree with these reviews. It is a very useful saw and I prefer it over the PC saw boss.  I hardly ever have this saw out alone but it sees a fair amount of use.  We treat it a little specail and make sure we don't through it around.  I do wish it came with a case because like I said I think of it more of a precision tool.  I have over the years bought hundreds of tools worth tens of thousands of dollars.  I would rate this little saw in my top ten.
