Is This The Best Chainsaw Sharpener???

[@George-iu7sz]

People make the whole chain sharpening too complicated. By a box of round files, put a light edge on the teeth with each tank of gas, and replace your files often. Teeth will always be razor sharp. Enjoy.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I appreciate your opinion.

[@amzarnacht6710]

Looks like if you buy one you might as well just buy two and use them simultaneously for both angles. So long as they're on the same side you just shift the chain slightly to engage each of the stops individually for each angle.

[@campnut6076]

I have one of these and grew frustrated with trying to get it set up correctly. I do think keeping your chain tight on the bar helps, but it seems to still have a lot of variance (movement) throughout the remainder of the sharpening process. I went back to my cordless Dremel and can do a satisfactory job in less than 1/3 the time with the new sharpener.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

It took me a little time to figure it out, but I can put a factory edge on in just a few mins now. It is the little tricks that save time.

[@bradneubauer4694]

I worked on a sawmill log deck back when all the logs were skidded through the dirt, which made it very difficult to maintain a sharp chain. I tried every gadget I could find and they helped me to learn the proper angle, depth, and raker tolerance. Once I understood how the shapes of the three surfaces should appear and could guide the file through the gullet in a straight line with light pressure back and then up, I was able to feel and hear when the tooth was sharp. It took a lot time to get good at it, but the better I got the easier my job was. The joy that I feel when the saw pulls itself into the log effortlessly and the engine honks like a Harley Davidson is the main reason that I enjoy processing my firewood. Remember to follow the rule of the 7 P's - prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance!

[@Bodhranarama]

Thank you.

[@indigatorveritatis8891]

I use the Stihl 2 in 1 sharpener in the field, it's been perfect for the kind of cutting I do. The constant raker adjustments as I file has proven to be more critical than I ever thought for the consistency. The efficiency and speed is hard to beat, but I'm going to get my hands on one of these and give it ago

[@dzl6848]

I heard about those I just bought one today. It worked awsome. Very impressed..

[@BigChungus-zg6zw]

I got given one. Very lucky, because I wouldn't have spent the money otherwise. And yeah. I don't use anything else now. What's especially great is that it's basically one piece. If I bought one of these things in the video I would probably lose all the files.

[@conmanumber1]

The Stihl is not Stihl. It's made by a Swiss company then branded. It's not perfect as it takes rakers down just a little too far.

I think it is way faster and much more accurate than a hand file. The chain seems to stay sharp longer too, like a new chain.

That canter knob is to keep chain link from moving sideways, mostly helps when doing cutters that are facing towards the carbide, you was doing the cutters that was facing away.... Also I find on those types sharpens it's harder to get the right hook if not careful, the more the tooth is sharpened the less hook the tooth gets.......

[@victoryfirst2878]

This sharpener is great when you just cut soft woods. The problem that occurs is when cutting hardwoods the chain tends to dig in and stop cutting. That is what I noticed. The angle of the sharpener is just for one type of sharpening angle. PERIOD !!!!

The original name brand of this sharpener is the Timberline, and it's constructed much better with higher-quality carbide cutters available in virtually every size for chain filing. Chain pitch doesn't matter with these because of the adjustment on the top-side stopper.

Skip the cheap knock off like you have here... get the Timberland brand

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Watch the second video I did comparing timberline to the Chinese version.

[@billstortz5046]

The original Timberline really works much better than a cheaper knock-off that is shown. Many sites show the Timberline but then they ship a cheaper knock-off.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Watch the second video I did on this

[@billwilson3665]

Exactly what I thought but the timberlines are always sold out.

[@tigerconway]

so the chinese one is worth it??? i verly found out about this sharpeners..

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

It worked well until I ran over it with my tractor. Stupid is as stupid does.

[@The_pipeliner]

This is an excellent product no doubt but, I feel like hand files are still quicker while in the field.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I agree.

[@ryan39584]

STIHL 2in1 sharpener is the best

[@marksherrill9337]

No. I bought one and the saw consistently cuts to one side. Tried to be fair and used it several times but always cut to one side and finally gave up. Probably operator error, but I could not master this particular product.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Watch the second video

[@GW-qe8qe]

This is absolute junk. Watch the video he only shows him sharpening it one way. It actually does ok in that direction. But the blades on the other side will not catch on the stop. He skips the other side intentionally. Show it sharpening the other way and I'll remove this post.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I think you may be basing your opinion on your own integrity compass. My integrity is not for sale.

[@JoeH-qu5mv]

were can i buy one of them chain saw sharpners like you got and how much

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I put a link in the video description .

[@MannistoCay]

Wow looks good from here. Might have to check it out myself. 👍🏼🪵🚜🌴

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

The chain was pulling nice chips and ribbons.

[@jasonhicks8124]

I'll be happy to give it a try if you wanna send me one

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

You send me $100 and I will send you one. 😁

[@melissatuason2395]

Watch Buckin Billy in Canada, he is a lumberjack awesome knowledge

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I have watched his videos, but I am never going to be a lumberjack at his level.

[@melissatuason2395]

@@TonysTractorAdventure I am with ya, many years on the job gave him that unique edge. Hes too good at it but a humble man. Cheers

[@robertodebeers2551]

I've been sharpening my chainsaws for fifty years. No bullshit. And I use a round file and a flat file that that's all. Because, that's all you need.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Thank you for your comment

[@Icutmetal]

Thanks for letting us know. No bullshit.

[@TurboMountTV]

Is this as good as a Libiyi SawSharpener? This looks like a Chinese copy.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Watch my other video about it. My mind has changed

[@jonathanryals9934]

As a lead chainsaw man, I found the main thing about sharpening is having a good file.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

That never hurt

[@moe2470]

No. The stihl one that does the rakers at the same time is much better.

[@David-zv2em]

beginner chain saw user here....how long would it take to sharpen a 16 inch chain with this device?

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

David, Like anything, you would get better with practice. I can sharpen my big saw in about 7-10 mins.

[@matthewsims359]

I think this could be very useful in the field. I always carry a small utility box with wedges, a mini sledgehammer, a tape measure, my saw wrench and maybe a spare chain. This looks to be small enough to fit in my utility box. I keep my box as small as possible to allow for more room to haul wood out in my sxs.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

That's a great idea! I still hand file some, but this thing will put a nice edge on the chain.

[@quantumhomeimprovements]

Great tool!

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

It impressed the heck out of me.

[@JohnnyRFarmer]

I bought one of these years ago. It's really not that good. You can sharpen a chain much better and faster with a bench vise and a file.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Thank you for your opinion.
