Yeah it's a great saw...but i had to get a a lighter 7 1/4 saw for every day use........dusted off that 8 1/4 to get the 3" deep cuts I needed

The Ingersoll Rands were great saws in their day. I had one on a panel saw until I got rid of my shop a few years ago.
We moved on from those for framing when the Makitas came out, the same time carbide blades became affordable.
Less money, less weight and those thin carbide blades lasted for weeks instead of a couple days as long as you didn't do something stupid.

As an apprentice carpenter I learned how simple it was to sharpen a dull saw blade with a mill file in just a few minutes. Sharpening your own tools was considered an essential skill......and every carpenter had a sharpening stone in his toolbox.........not the case these days.
