You can still buy it at $164.02
I bought it last time and I'm very happy with it, because I am a left handed

Now, with the loss of my left arm, I'm a righty... and there's no good left blade track saws. Just one PO 💩 from Kreg.
It seems a good left blade track saw will never exist. I try to explain to companies and people how the current track saws (with right side blade) are for lefties, but all I get back is "RaBbLe RaBbLe!!!" . They'll never know how good it could've been.
So enjoy the life of being a lefty!

Right or left handed people, blade right or blade left saws, there are advantages and disadvantages either way depending on how you use your saw. Including:
- Sight lines (though cut-outs in blade guards are getting much better)
- Where the chips/sawdust fly (somewhat negated if the saw has dust collection)
- How you set up and hold your cuts (which side is the cut-off)
- Where your hands and body are in relation to the blade
- What you are accustomed to using
Some people have very strong feelings about which is best, but it is ultimately up to the individual user to choose which attributes are most important to them.And if you want a wormdrive style rear handle saw, you only have one choice.

Depending on how you set up and hold the cut, keeps the larger part of the shoe (and weight of the motor) on the good piece rather than the potentially small offcut.
The blade is away from the user who is less likely to be in the path of a kickback.
Most people are right handed and most sidewinders have traditionally been right bladed, so that's what people are probably more accustomed to using.
