Interesting saw with blade to cut mild steel. Looking for information on the web doesn't provide much about longer term blade performance. Such as, how many cuts in mild steel will this blade perform?
Anyway, there are a couple video reviews from the UK and the cut through mild steel right out of the box looks impressive. Replacement blades are available at the likes of Home Depot.....Reportedly, the replacement blade has a slightly different arbor than a standard circular saw. While it appears there are adapter rings to make it fit, I would suggest the intended use of the blade is for the matching saw as this saw has an RPM of 3600 which is quite a bit slower than a typical corded 15 amp wood working saw which run @ 5600 RPM. The lower speed would definitely make more sense for mild steel.

Blade adapters are fine, they're only there to make sure the blade is centered up on the arbor. The washer that clamps down is larger than the adapter and is still only in contact with the original blade steel.
I have several that I use with different saws around the shop. My best example is with my ~70 year old craftsman 12" table saw with half inch arbor. I need an adapter to put modern 12" blades on the saw.
Seems like the router bits are cheaper on Amazon right now, unless I'm looking at the wrong item. According to CCC, the Amazon price is reasonable, but not an incredible deal by any means.
Edit: looks like I was looking at the wrong kit. The Amazon price for this one is actually 170. Not sure what the difference is though, if any.
The evolution tools are primarily for cutting metal, not wood. I've had the miter saw for many years now and it's pretty awesome, I ordered one of the handheld circular saws with this deal.

But the router bits seems like a good deal

Looks like a great set but they are all quarter inch shank. If anyone sees a deal and a half inch shank, slide up in my DMs!

So just because Bosch owns Freud, do not expect any Italian made bits in the set.
Earlier this morning Amazon had the bit set for $12 less than woot, but now it's back up again.
