    Thanks, but I already have some, was looking for a picture to see which way the cut runs on the one(s) you have.

    I guess they could, but I doubt you would notice a difference unless we are talking pro competition. Cut4fun sent culls to the nails that were 3/10 slower than place winners. Maybe that file could be the difference maker there, but that's 0.3 seconds .............. I can just about put a mirror finish on the cutters with the same file that I use to make RS square. Its all in the technique. Now, have a look @ hedges and Mdavlees chains ......... them were some rough looking finishes and some quick times.

    I have seen it with my own, you try your hardest to get a fast chain, and its a dud. ......... then the quick job for the stumper makes you giggle.:loco: :crazy:

    I file most teeth in 2 or 3 strokes. I'm not looking for the smoothest finish 99% of the time. Angles are 80% of cut speed. The rest is just icing on the cake.

    Yes. But the stihl dealer up by SF sold them before the atop guide was even out I believe. I had them before atop thingy bob.

    6 sided works in the atop too.
