stihl easy file

[MikeTM150]

Wow, used myn for the first time yesterday on our 346xp what a brilliant tool, really easy to use, perfectly sharp and cuts like a hot knife in melted butter.....well till i hit a fencing nail!

 

Can't believe it took me so long to try it out for the first time, been sat in my tool box for a month or more!!! Will be chucking the oregon electric one over the hedge bleeding useless thing!

This makes sharpening saws a pleasure rather thn a chore. Great bit of kit. Hav a few..:thumbup:

Tis a great bit of kit, just wish they'd do one for .404" on my 880 though.... or do they and i have missed it?

Stihl only go up to a 5.2mm but I do have some Pferd ones (I'm pretty sure they make the Stihl ones for Stihl) that have 5.5mm set up for .404 chain..... I'm not marketing them as they cost £2-00 less wholesale than the Stihl EZ file does retail! PM me if you want one - would be £30-00+vat.

 

They're not bad.... but personally I wouldn't say they were 'night and day' compared to other filing techniques and equipment - just another useful option.

 

The main disadvantage is that you have to have one for each size chain.

It looks as if they only post within the UK.

 

Does someone know where I could purchase this item for delivery to Ireland?
