Skilsaw

SKILSAW is a brand of power tools, most notably known for its circular saws. The company was founded in 1924 by Edmund White and his business partner, Arthur Schaeffer. White invented the first portable circular saw, the Model 77, which revolutionized the construction industry. SKILSAW was originally a division of the Skilsaw, Inc. corporation.

Over the years, the SKILSAW brand has expanded its product line to include a wide range of power tools such as drills, sanders, miter saws, and reciprocating saws. The brand has a long-standing reputation for producing durable and reliable tools for both professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts.

In 1991, SKILSAW was acquired by Robert Bosch GmbH, a German multinational engineering and technology company. The SKILSAW brand continues to operate under the Bosch umbrella, maintaining its focus on innovation and quality in the power tool market. The company's iconic red circular saws remain a common sight on job sites and in workshops worldwide. SKILSAW's commitment to developing advanced features and user-friendly designs has solidified its position as a leading name in the power tool industry for nearly a century.
