Hey, just to input about this deal on Amazon. The saw is great, of course, and the bag is also. For a finish guy sometimes just shelving or bunching tools goes against the grain and having all the stuff associated with a certain tool all together is great. I had to buy this saw before the bag deal was going to be in stock (at the time they were quoting about a 2 month wait…no way when I needed it now), though I still thought the bag was a great combo and PRICE. I called Skil to ask if it could be had (the bag) and the price. They said it retails for around $47 or so and told me where to go on Ebay for a supplier. They wanted $33…OK just got it and a rip fence for it.
The bag is heavy-duty cordura type nylon and real well made….I was worried not being able to see the product in even a photo and hearing it called a “fabric bag” that it might really be just simple fabric…not so. I had read a review that mentioned the bag and the saw not even fitting if it had the blade on….TOTALLY wrong…the saw fits VERY well into it with a blade, as anyone would want, and with some room for a few blades and other side stuff, too. Real nice bag! There you go, for those that will be wondering, as I was, about this…”bag”.
