I would not consider myself a tool nerd, I am very far from one at least, but I do really enjoy new gadgets and seeing new tools. This list was super enjoyable for me because there was a good variety of things we haven't seen before. Seeing the new circ saw blade with the open cut outs and the nail shaped teeth really caught my eye, and from an engineering standpoint very intriguing. The open cuts to have lower mass on the blade makes so much sense and it's interesting that we don't see much of that. This reducing energy use is huge, and I think out of this list this blade is my favorite new tool. It is so simple yet so effective, and I can imagine a very smooth cut with this. My second favorite was probably the Malco Adjustable Siding Gauge. Hand tools are always very fun for me to try and when they show tools that reduce the number of labor hands you would need, I can't help but imagine having a one man shop with these tools.
