its a oregon product looks cool but does it chew through ur chain making u buy chains faster?
 
I don't like it. It grinds the TOP of the tooth to bring the edge back, not the face of the tooth. Unless the tooth was 3/16" thick or more, it will not have the life expectancy of a chain like the Stihl RS. And as the tooth gets progressively thinner (from sharpening), it will loose strength.
 
That's exactly what I thought it would do just wanted to see what the vets thought of it I'm a chef and I know the sell things u can slide ur knife through sharpens it In like ten seconds but some enough u will not have a knife to sharpen. It's always been better to use a wet stone specially when the knives I talk of r $200-$400 a piece. Seen the video and said that's just to easy and quick to be good for the chain. Thanks again
