20" .325-063-81DL Ripping Chainsaw Chain replaces Stihl MS261, MS271, MS291, K3C-RP-81E

This chain required a sharpening right out of the package, but once sharpened, it worked great!

I just used this chain today. I did not presharpen it. Just ran it straight from the package. Worked well. Appeared to need a sharpening fairly quick. But like I said. I didnt pre sharpen it. Ill be using it all day tomorrow. Ill follow up after a full day of use. But overall. Appeared to be a decent chain, and I have no complaints. But nobody gets 5 stars until I can put it thru proper testing

I milled three slabs of walnut with a regular chain and the eight with this one. This chain tracks better, cuts faster and leaves a smoother edge. Take it from one of the most value driven people in the world. This chain is worth every penny.

I was read the reviews and wasn't 100% sure. After running the chain I was very happy with the results. Cuts fast and clean... Made quick work of a 16in pine Milled the 14ft log without any problems Chain had little stretch if any.. Still as sharp was when I put it on Seriously impressed... I will buy again

Very satisfied with this chain. I used it on our Stihl Farmboss 271 with 20" bar. Overall we ripped 40' with an 11" width and 40' with a 6" width. After that amount and it needs sharpened, the last 10' took some back and forth action. The chain leaves a slightly rough cut, but we love it, bc it looks old school "rough" cut. Easily planned out though if you don't like it. If you don't know, be extremely careful if you need to make a cut perpendicular to the grain, it grabs hard, but that's why this is for ripping only, just an FYI. Very satisfied, getting a second one so I can sharpen the first and have a backup.

Nice and sharp. Rips through material.

When I ordered it, this did not appear to me to be the highest quality chain and it was not configured exactly as the ripping chains I was familiar with. So I didn't know what to expect, but I can no longer find the conventional ripping chain for my saw, so I tried this one. I have only used it on red cedar, which is pretty easy to cut. It has done quite well; significantly better than regular chain giving me a very controlled cut quickly (compared to regular chain) and leaving an amazingly smooth surface. I can't compare it to the ripping chain I'm familiar with as I never used that on cedar, but especially for the price--far less than that other ripping chain--I'm quite happy with it.

Use only for software cutting.

Just perfect for my use

Work great for the wood work I was doing , turned around and ordered a second for spare.
