It's all about the blades. I've had an 8 1/4" Skil worm for 40+ years, it will cut anything, concrete, wood, aluminum, even steel. BUT only with the right blade for the job, and it will not give the finished results any of the four track saws that I own...55, 75, HKC, and Makita. After all, you can build a house with just an axe...but why would you.
