Left-side blade placement The Southpaw from SKILSAW is a 7 ¼-in. magnesium left blade sidewinder circular saw. Placement of the blade on the left aims to improve blade and cut-line visibility for increased accuracy. With 56-degree bevel, the circular saw adds capacity for a wider variety of cuts, including 1 ½-in. max cut at 56 degrees. A 15-amp Dual- Field motor increases cooling to extend the tool's life, while its magnesium construction dissipates motor heat and reduces tool weight.
