The BLUE RIDGE Mini Circular Saw is designed with convenience in mind. It has a dust extraction system which allows for the connection of the tool to a dust bag or a vacuum cleaner. We like the fact that it comes with a parallel guide which lets you produce straighter cuts. An Allen key is included to allow for quick and easy blade changes.
