which saw?

[defender tipper]

Hi Guys,  got a chance of buying a very good rebuilt husky 357xp would this make a good replacement for my

stihl 026 for cutting mid range firewood? I know they are both old saws but i do like the older stuff where i can get away with it

we do have larger new saws.

Yes it would a little larger and heavier, more comparable would be a 346

Have it great saws

357 is a legendary saw. Check whether it's been rebuilt with oem or Chinese.

Slightly heavier than 026 but punchier. If you set up and the weight is in the cut you'll not notice.

I bought one 10years ago from my old boss who had used it well and it's still going strong!

I use a 560XP day to day in the woods, but for a more relaxed pace on firewood cutting I actually prefer an old 026 they have at one place I sub for, as said, great saws and I defo agree on the Stihl
