Opinions needed on steel cutting Circular Saw.
I watched a short video tonight in which a fellow made a tool out of steel to de-construct pallets. He used a Bosch cordless circular saw (don't know the model) and cut pre-measured plates out of what looked like 1/4 inch thick steel about 3 inches wide and a couple of feet long. He used a guide but cut both along length and across.
This was not the double bladed type with counter rotating blades.
Have any of you done this? What blade types are used for this, - the approx. 50 tooth carbide made for steel, or diamond type of blades?
Here is the link to the pallet breaker:

I am interested in the blade type, and if it is safe to do on a reasonably heavy duty corded 7 1/4 saw.
Thanks in advance for the response. I have not seen home tool saws cutting steel like that.
