if not sthil or husky next best thing

Everybody always overlooks Efco!

 

I've fixed and used quite a few, and they're built really well and spares simple to source. The pro models (156/162) are pricey, but the farmer's saws (152/147) are good value.

Jonsered, usually cheaper than husky, but you can get the old and new range!

Makita, Dolmar, Echo, or possibly a used STIHL or Husqvarna.

 

Jonsered is right up there with Husky, as it currently is basically the same thing.

beat me to it!!!

Actually, come to think of it, the silky is a very serious saw not to be under estimated. i don't own a chainsaw at present and have done a HUGE amount of work just with the Silky. And thats including dealing with an 80ft windblown hornbeam.
