Abstract
A case for a circular saw, including a pivotable compartment for holding at least one blade. When the compartment is closed, at least a portion of the compartment is accommodated by a recess of the base. In this position, access to the interior of the compartment is restricted, such that a blade may not be removed from, or placed in, the compartment. A lock may be used to keep the compartment in this position. When access to the compartment is desired, the compartment may be pivoted, so that at least a portion of the compartment is projecting outwardly, substantially horizontally, from the base. In this open position, access to the compartment is permitted, and at least one blade may be placed in, or removed from, the compartment.
