Get a semi chisel chain or you'll be forever sharping a full chisel one trust me it loses it's edge so fast

 

 

I've had one that was sharp for a few days without touching it! Only went blunt when my boss used it!

HI EDDY as im told husky chains are no good can i fit a STIHL CHAIN ON A 560 RUNNING ON 3,25 CHAIN AND WHAT DO I NEED THANKS JON:thumbup:

 

 

Husky chains are fine, not particularly aggressive though, you have to order the .058 stihl chain though as .063 won't fit in the bar

You have been told misleading "information" - but both Oregon/Husky and Stihl have some models that you should avoid. :wink:

That depends on how you file them, and they can get a bit sharper than Stihl chain, because of the thinner chrome.

 

I'm talking about chisel chain, I don't use enough semi chisel to comment on that.

Husky do a full chisel?

Generally, the Oregon stuff can be sharpened more aggressively and don't chip as badly I've found, where as you muller a stihl chisel and loose half. Semi chisels resist more damage BUT it puts a lot more strain on a saw due to a larger cutting edge
