| Best Chain Sharpener |
| Reviewed By: |
Don Brurud (Fall River Mills, CA) |
This is the best chain sharpener I have used. One was a knock off of a brand name sharpener. It was cheap,setup was constant. You get what you pay for. I tried my neighbors Oregon sharpener,(it is more than twice the price of Garrett Wades Italian sharpener) and it is not as easy to use.
Garrett Wades Italian sharpener setup and use is intuitive. I set it up using the Garrett Wades re-written instructions. I first sharpened an old 28 inch chain that I didn't care if I screwed up. Once the sharpener is set up it is very quick. Even working carefully to make certain the set up had not changed,I spent much less than a half hour sharpening the entire chain. I spent some time cleaning up a few links and tried it out. FANTASTIC!!! It actually cut better than a factory chain! I am impressed. I highly recommend this sharpener, especially if you are a casual wood cutter and have trouble sharpening your chains. Over the years, this sharpener will save you time and money, to say nothing of the safety of cutting with a sharp chain.

Poor quality and design. Something I would expect from China not Italy. Proper alignment is an issue.

Nothing is perfect. If you're careful and mindful of what you are doing this sharpener works great. It still takes time as each tooth must be double checked for alignment before bringing down the sharpening wheel. It's much faster and easier than doing it by hand, but I would question the time it takes to sharpen a chain that's advertised. Delivers a nice sharp edge when you take your time and are vigilant about alignment.

| I bought the "manual" chain saw sharpener about a year ago. It is easy to set up and operate. I use my saws a lot, so I have chains to sharpen frequently. I was taking them to a local shop, but this is so easy to use that I figure that I've paid for the grinder and saved a couple hundred dollars by sharpening them myself - PLUS I have sharp chains on hand virtually all the time. |

| directions make this product seem harder to use than it is very easy to line sharping wheel up with the teeth on the chain and your ready to go. Adjustment from chain to chain are quite minimumal. |
