One carbide blade.

Less messing around, clean cuts.

Do not buy 7mm flooring. Unless you want to replace it every few months. Also I find that along with a chop saw, a good jigsaw is a must. I have done whole houses with just a jigsaw and a few good blades, no chopsaw or skillsaw. If you set up a proper jig it is nearly as fast and uses less blades/less cost.
