A circular saw includes a housing, an electrical motor mounted in the housing, a base plate disposed below the housing, a saw blade attached to the housing and driven by the electrical motor, and an alignment indication assembly coupled to the housing. The saw blade has a portion below the base plate and can be tilted with respect to the base plate in a transverse direction. The alignment indication assembly has an indication member with an indicating end. The indication member is movable relative to a rotation center of the saw blade when the saw blade is being tilted with respect to the base plate so that the indicating end is maintained in front of and in line with the saw blade all the time.
