Default Cutting laminate flooring - sliding mitre saw?

Sliding mitre saws look a good solution, bit also seem expensive.

Three questions:

(1) Are sliding mitre saws a good investment for cutting laminate?
(2) If so, would I need a special fine toothed blade?
(3) If so, can you recommend a saw? Cheapest at Screwfix (Titan 8") is
£79.99 and next cheapest (Erbauer 10") is £129.99. After that, it
would be cheaper to pay someone to lay the flooring!


(1) Yes and loads of other stuff e.g 6 x 2 joists.
(2) See below
(3) I just bought the Axminster one which comes with a free stand and a

free
60T CMT ultra thin kerf saw blade. Brilliant bit of kit, well pleased

with
it for £139 all in.


Where did you get it?

Online or in a store?

Can't see it in my Screwfix list.

Any URLs much appreciated.

Cheers
