The Milwaukee Amp 7-1/4-Inch Circular Saw has a blade mounted on the left side so that you can use right hand on the main handle.

It’s better and lighter than worm drive saws and delivers 3.25 max horsepower with 35% reduced weight and 5-degree extra adjustment.

If you want power with consistent performance all day, you practically can’t rely on a battery power. It comes with 9’ fixed power cord, which powers the motor with 110 – 120 volts AC/DC. The 15 amperes motor delivers 5800 RPM max to rip through toughest surfaces easily, including wet lumber and nice. The bevel allows 50-degree rotation for a variety of cutting applications.

The Tilt-Lok is one of the special and exclusive features in some Milwaukee circular saws and allows a user to adjust the handle in the most comfortable position.

Weighing only 10.4 pounds, the 6391-21 is powerful than other tools of the same weight in the market.

This circular saw is also very easy to use and adjustment knobs are located at very convenient locations. It comes with spindle lock and the size of a spindle is 5/8”. The max depth of blade at 90-degree angle is 2-7/16”. It makes 1-13/16” and 1-11/16” deep cuts at 45 and 50 degrees respectively.
