Get the $139 deal with the Max tool and Max bat. This is the new circ saw. Their is a vid comparing many 6 1/2" circ saws and the new Ridgid has more power and cut faster than all of them.
btw -...

How is this vs the 7-1/4 in. Circular Saw (R8654B) ?
What blade size is more common?

Doesn't seem too powerful but the color scheme looks like it matches with a Rebel X-Wing Fighter.

Can confirm that this 6 1/2" saw does have a brake, and I would guess the 7 1/4" does too. It's probably so common on modern saws, it might not be listed as a feature anymore.

Are you lefty? I love the blade left orientation for line of sight. Is it just years of habit or something specific?

I would get a 7 1/4 because the blades are more common. In fact, I own this saw in 7 1/4 and think the saw is fantastic. So easy to use.
