How do you like that saw? I’m looking at getting one for brushing. Was the felling cut a different saw?

[@coilstreeservice9398]

The echo 271 is an okay saw but we bought a Stihl ms193T later and it’s a much much much better saw than the echo! And we dropped this trunk with an echo CS800

@@coilstreeservice9398 Thanks for the response. Does your 193t have 3/8 or 1/4 pitch chain? I don’t have any Echo, never have. I have MS 461, use to have 039. The saw I’ve been using on the trails is a Homelite XL with 18” 1/4 pitch chain, I’d like to set up the 193t the same way if I got one. We carry the saw in 4-7 miles inside a backpack along with overnight gear, that’s why I’m looking at the same saws as a tree climber. Plus, cutting brush doesn’t allow you to rest the saw on a log for bigger cuts. Making weight critical for operation too.

mountainguyed67 it is my son’s topping saw I retired from tree work a few months ago but since he’s put a 1/4 on it and done some exhaust work on it and it almost rips like a 200 for half price 👍

@@mountainguyed67 I know this is a year later and probably won’t be any help with your decision but the bar and chain makes all the difference in the world. I’m still climbing trees every day at 46 so I’m always looking for the easiest and most efficient way to get a tree down and the Echo cs271T with a good 12” bar with 3/8 pitch chisel chain with no safety link sharpened right with a hand file I can cut as fast as you will ever need to and probably faster. Once you have been doing it for most of your life you will sacrifice a little power and displacement for a lighter, better balanced, more ergonomic climbing saw, or “top handle saw” gladly and your shoulders, elbows,wrists and hands will be spared a lot of unnecessary stress. I’ve used every top handle saw that Stihl, Echo and Husqvarna ever made with exception to some of the newer electric saws and the 271T is still my favorite climbing saw. The newer 2511T is great too but again your saw is only as good as the bar and chain and with the right setup you can get a smaller saw to cut brush just as fast, if not faster than a stock 200T or a 355T. I’m not brand loyal to any of the saw companies but I feel like I get more for my money with Echo and they are really good about standing behind they’re products and warranty work is never an issue.
