This page is about handheld circular saws. Other varieties exist: a chop saw is useful if you want to cut narrow planks or posts, while a table saw is especially suited for cutting medium-sized boards and panels.

All circular saws cut with a rotating circular saw blade that may have teeth or an abrasive edge, depending on what material it is for.
