Apparently they are the shiz-nit. Most things I've read are guys going to that type of saw from the abrasive wheel saw. I've got an abrasive wheel one and it works fine for what I need it for. I don't use it much but when I do it makes things much easier. I ended up getting the heavy duty HF one as it had better reviews than the regular duty one and the Dewalt. I got it on sale with a 20% so it wasn't bad. I run Dewalt blades on it and it's fine. There were a couple of write ups on Pirate a long time ago about a blade similar to the one shown on the picture you posted. They are just as loud but make no dust and are really accurate. I may switch to one one of these days but my stack of Dewalt wheels are lasting.
