- sharpening in a vise gets the best results... I bought a small one you drive into a stump with a mini maul, works quite well felling lever; Got both these, and a pulp hook at a place on Windmill Rd... it's got oil tanks outside most of the time, looks like a house.... can't think of what it's called right now... but they have hard to find things like these. Value sales?

i had one of those. only used it a couple times, i could sit on a stump. legs folded, and file the saw that way better then with the vise. if it was dulled real bad, i kept a spare chain to toss on.
one of those ammo boxes worked great., kept the basic tools, and spare parts right with me in the woods. a peice of rope, tool box on one end, gas/bar oil on the other, slung over my shoulder. saw in one hand, axe in the other.

ahh the good old days, jump in the '72 bronco, take 3 chainsaws, fell and pile a cord of wood, start a fire, eat lunch and drive out with the wood on the bronco (yep a cord) and at minimum two down chainsaws - sometimes simple to fix sometimes stupid stuff

I flipped the bar today and solved all my problems, cuts much better. Read something on the internet about uneven wear.
