Are you sure about the included blade kerf thickness? Manual says no blades less than 1.8mm for riving knife to work. What is the riving knife thickness? There’s a row for it but it’s blank.

What is behind manufactures logic, battery free hand saws, blade left waste left, track saws blade right waste right? I started in the construction industry back in 1959 cutting timber with a handsaw and being right handed the waste side always fell to the right. Moving up to a power sidewinder saw, no difference,blade right hand, clear line of sight and the waste always fell to the right.The load and balance of the saw lay on the retained timber side. With a worm drive saw blade left no clear line of sight and load and balance on the waste side and the same with the battery free hand saws.

There seems to be some conflicting comments between various reviews and within your review.
Is the battery included or not. Your review says yes in more than one spot and no in another. Other reviews say no.
Which is it?
I am currently using both Ridgid and Ryobi battery tools but this track saw will never leave my shop so battery or corded is no concern .

Is there confirmed release date? I see a number of reviews, but the ridgid website still says Coming Soon, and I can’t find any information about an actual release date. Trying to figure out if I should wait for it, or buy something else if it’s going to be awhile.

This is an excellent review, and it is really appreciated. I have been waiting this for some time now. I am budget conscious and like to stay with in my platform if at all possible.

Since they are sibling brands, and since you reviewed the Ryobi track saw, what is the compatibility like between the Ridgid and the Ryobi track saws and tracks? The profile of both tracks looks similar.
