I have an opportunity to pick up a B&D BT4000 for under a $100.00
I can't find any in depth reviews online on this saw.
Do any of you fine folks here have any experience with this particular saw?

Just a personal opinion:

Even at $70.00 USD they are stealing your money. Antique design that wasn't all that good of a design when it first came out.

Thanks for your opinion Grey Beard. I'll pass on this saw. I have a Ryobi that won't hold a pinless blade on a bet. I'll wait till I can find a better saw that I don't need a second mortgage to be able to afford it.
