1. DeWalt DCS570B
No matter what saw you use, a diamond blade is required for stone. You won’t find every saw that comes with a blade made of diamonds, so make sure to have one. The DeWalt DCS670B comes with a brushless motor and can run at up to 5200 RPM.
The stone material will not be matched once the blade is paired with a pair of diamond blades. The blade can also keep speed under load, and the power tool is compatible with 20V batteries.
The corded electric circular-saw can be used to cut more angles than others for versatility.

Aluminum die cast table tilts to allow for angled cuts, and the rack-and-pinion fence can be adjusted up to 45 degrees.
