Poll: What do you use to sharpen your saw?

[TimberCutterDartmoor]

Freehand. If I had to - roller.

Interesting to see that for all the gadgets and guides that the majority so far still prefer free hand!

To me, freehand is the best; all the other garb preached at first, gets in the way and the eventual ability to go freehand produces the sharpest results.

Freehand and one of these. Best $8 I spent.

Have used a file guide until recently but am now a convert to the roller guide. Just bought one of Rob Ds electric jobys for dealing with knackered chains from rocks etc but not used it yet. Don't trust myself freehand.

It's the percentage of people who voted for that option I think.

 

I'm suprised so many people use free hand, I often get the wrong angle with the guide on.
