A skid plate assembly for a concrete cutting saw is provided. The skid plate assembly has a slot through which the rotating cutting blade passes to cut the concrete. Springs located on opposite sides of the cutting blade resiliently bend the skid plate to counteract deformation of the skid plate as it is placed against the concrete. The spring and skid plate being sized to allow bending to accommodate variations in the flatness of the concrete surface during cutting so that it remains in sufficient contact with the surface of the concrete surrounding the cutting blade to reduce raveling.
