I have a Hitachi and a PC, one with a right blade while the other is left. I like them both, and they each have distinct advantages. Cutting thin strips off a panel, I like the left sided saw while doing general cutting, I like the right sided blade.

hcbph,

Yeah, I think I'm going to do the same thing. I already have one with the blade on the left. So I might as well get the other one. Now, I'll see if the wife will get it for me for my birthday. Hehe...

Once again thanks everybody for your replies!

Okay here it goes again. Does anyone have the new Porter-Cable MAG423 left-bladed (MAG324 - right-bladed) circular saw? If you do, I have a question for you. I was kind of worried about the no tool blade change. I was thinking that the blade would not be so secure if I tighten the blade with that new feature the saw has. Since I'm so use to using wrenches that come with saws. Does it really secure the blade nice and tight? And if it does, it doesn't come loose, does it? Since it's just finger tight. Also, is the spring loaded lever strong enough to sustain the pressure of turning that retaining nut? Sorry for the question but I just want to make sure I buy the right saw and not regret it later. Our local Lowes hardware store just carries that model of the Porter-Cable and I like Porter-Cable but I'm not too sure of that new feature. Sorry to bore you with the same subject... Anybody?
