Ive had a couple of customers wanting to pre purchase but im not going down that road again. Paying transaction fees then refunding and paying more fees when people get tired of waiting, no thanks.

From what I've heard recently its looking like December 2025/Jan 2026

That's getting close...

I managed to get hold of a 564 recently and it's a great saw to use ( an hour or so  a day logging up for a week or two ) been told told December same as Mark and I would imagine we have the same rep being in the north west. Although we all know how they like to get stuff out on time

60-70cc seems to be the right spot for a chainsaw for the normal/"average" guy, not professional.

 

BUT: I did got the chance to hold and use/cut into a hardwood log with a Husqvarna 390,old but in good shape. 

 

I was impressed ,quite a difference from Makita EA6100P. 

 

And same dude ,that is almost always either in forest chopping trees or in 6x4 truck transporting logs , confessed he's thinking about a new Husqvarna 395xp . 

 

Because more power= better chainsaw.

 

Who's complaining about weight get back to gim and pushups 😁

 

I haven't used+carried that 390xp all day or at least 3-4 hours but it didn't felt that much heavier than a Makita EA6100.

Chain .325 but it has limits...

 

As for blade length... 

As long as you need it to be .

 

Women want it longer and bigger. 🙄

 

They must know something
