Saw Boss Blades

Thinking of upgrading my old skill saw to a Porter-Cable Saw Boss 6"
circular saw. I like the idea of left blade and small size and I think
the smaller blade should have less run out. Don't know about getting
blades for it though. I see Freud has 20 and 40 tooth ATB blades but
wanted to hear what others have and use. I will use it for final cuts on
plywood veneer mostly.

TIA

it's a great little saw. I found it very accurate and it cuts faster than any
other saw I have tried. with a good straightedge I can cut dead on.
I have gotten my last blades at the same store i got the saw the on ones from
PC are good quality.

Thanks for your feedback. Yes I was wondering about the blades. The only
ones I see are from P-C and Freud and at that they are ATB don't see a
rip blade.

Don't think I have seen a rip blade. but with the narrow kerf it may not be
needed. I have crosscut 8/4 purpleheart without a problem with it.
