Thanks Cody!
See if you can get your hands on a stihl ms 500i and do a honest review
I was worried at first when you'd mentioned this in a previous video there'd be a risk of the chain breaking and flinging all those teeth at your ankles, but I see now they have rivetted on the rake/tooth pairs around the blade itself. Also pretty clever they offer extra strength by having the blade itself shaped into the tooth and paired next to it but a bit shorter to accommodate loss over time from use and sharpening. Great video! Thanks for sharing as always, Cody, and God bless you and yours during these times.
How do you like that Toughbuilt bag?
Try the renegade razor carbide brush cutter (also on amazon 2 pack 9" blade 68 teeth $32+s/h ). Cuts much faster and has a longer life than the forestry blade just be careful of the rocks and metal pipes. If it gets dull call your local blade sharpener and you are good to go.
Cody coming from a Stihl technician here. the big flat washer should be on there with the arbor. They actually should not come apart. Its all one piece. Helps keep dirt and debris out of those bearings
first thing i notices as well
I seen that also.
Yeah, cringed when I saw that, plus the domed spacer helps keep the blade and threaded spigot off the ground.
@@capnpugwash5403 - my guess is you meant threaded spindle, and auto correct made it spigot?
@@orcoastgreenman Possibly, but as I cannot find the original comment I cannot say, but more than likely I meant what I said... possibly the ENGLISH translation "A small peg or plug, especially for insertion into the vent of a cask". emphasis on the small peg or plug.
That rotating time lapse at 6:35 is great camera work. Very cool shot. Well done.
It’s actually a 360 degree camera
@@butchrodgers9559 It doesn't look like one, there's not lens distortion like 360 cameras normally have. I think he had the camera on timelapse mode and used an auto-rotating mount. Maybe I'm wrong tho, idk
@@justacameraman4900 Looks like a camera sat on top of an egg timer to me!
@@TheWrongWayRoundTour you can hear it too at 7:48
Would have been better with the Benny Hill Show's "Yakkity Sax" as the soundtrack.
“Hey let’s try out this new spinning wheel of chainsaw death.”
“Hey I think today’s the day I finally need to get that silly safety guard off of this thing finally.”
Lol bold move, my kinda of move for sure!
lol. Hey only wears a helmet
No safety guard on a chainsaw and the teeth are closer to you than this weed eater so yeah - makes sense
where is my leg
I removed my previous comment more in disgust than displeasure which compared this circular saw with the post-war Swing Saws that killed so many forestry workers. Sure, this one is much smaller but a jam leading to loss of control can wreak havoc in a fraction of a second.
Loss of legs, or in this case major trauma to the lower legs, will not improve your day.
It was as if the danger never existed.
Two sentences one should only put together in a zombie apocalypse.
I just ordered a blade like that this past week. Tried it out this weekend and cleared out about 500 feet of moderately grown in trail in less than an hour. Definitely an effective tool
Its great at clearing out bushes in young forest floors, or clearing a field. Great tool for the price.
Just a heads up that the guard is extremely necessary. Obvious safety aside, there’s a couple things that it’s there for.
Every inch of string past the recommended length adds around 100 degrees to the motor.
Also the vibration of the strings being slightly different cause a bunch of stress on the shaft components including clutch parts and crank bearings.
I’m a gold level stihl tech and have had to give several customers bad news about their units for those listed reasons. I’m not much of a commenter on UA-cam videos, but I thought that information would be worth sharing if it helps anyone. God bless!
I have the carbide tooth version of this, which I run on my trimmer. Such a great tool for clearing brush. Where I am in Kansas, we are overrun with Honeysuckle and cedar, and this makes quick work of them.
Carbide teeth can break off.
It is important to note, that these accessory heads only work well with shaft driven trimmers.
It doesn't take long to to break the cable driven trimmers
I was thinking that myself. A spinning cable wouldn't have a high-enough torque limit to run a blade that heavy.
@@deusexaethera varies on what you use these on. I use a brush attachment on my Echo 2620 and it knocks up to 2 to 5 inch depending on wood type and sapplings. I can clear a field in no time with no strain on the cable. Now something like what he has is too heavy not to mention cuts to slow.
My dad has been putting on circular saw blades on a weed eaters for atleast 20 years now. Glad you finally discovered this trick.
Honestly this looks like the most fun, the idea of taking an almost raw piece of land and shaping it to your needs. I wish I had land when I watch projects like this.
Raw piece of land in the wilderness ? Listen to all the traffic noise in the background.
Don't usually comment. But, I really enjoyed the 360 degree time-lapse of the video work. Was really genius and worth commenting on. Have a blessed day.
I cleared overgrown properties for 15 years, a crosscut sawblade with carbide teeth meant for plywood and such was an excellent tool when combined with a trimmer. You could edge, clear land, and even grind the left behind stumps. The blades would last an average of 100 hours of use each.
i ised the same thing for clearing my land carbide circular saw blade cheap and works amazing
Yip Take a step drill bit and make the arbor 1" Fantastic weed eater blade.....LOVE Mine!
@@briankarlsen6676 since when are carbide saw blades cheap?
@@dwightschrute4560 I dont know what they cost where you are but i dont concider $10-15 too expensive concidering hop helpfull it is and how long it lasts
@@briankarlsen6676 I wouldn't consider that expensive at all if that was how much they were around these parts. Too bad cause that's a damn good price!
I've seen chainsaw type cutting blades for angle grinders, used by carpenters while building frame walls and cabins out of logs. They worked out big grooves and tenons in no time and flattened logs easy and fast.
Never have seen one for a weed cutter, but this makes perfect sense.
Those grinder ones are sketchy af due to the way they're put together. They use an actual section of chain instead of attaching the teeth right to the blade like this one.
When the chain breaks off it can cause severe injury or death because they're not very secure
The grinder ones are an easy way to kill youself or lose a hand.
I’m shocked that you said $27 was expensive. They guy with a $300 tool belt lol
and $150 flannel shirts.
squirt squirt.
Shows he still has a down to earth mindset. Just because he can afford that stuff he knows not everyone can
$27 can be a bit much for something that looks like a gimmick and has the potential of grenading the second it hits something it shouldn’t. Heha
@@MrJeepinZeke not for someone who can afford a Rolex.
The circular shot was awesome - plus it was representative of the c i r c u l a r saw ;)
Doesn’t seem that expensive when you consider the time and effort it saved you. If you threw it away, it still seems worth it for that one job.
Yep, my thoughts exactly. I always buy bigger than what "can" get the job done.
ONE as you said time. I can do the job faster and therefore move on to the next project even if that's a lawn chair and a beer.
TWO it makes the job easier which means I can do more before I'm exhausted.
THREE larger motors don't work as hard therefore last longer.
I’ve had good luck with the tri-blade thing, but this does looks better.
I feel like Cody is avoiding talking about the election fraud lest he risk his channel being taken away. very wise
@@TheBelrick What's that got to do with a strimmer blade. Why can't people just accept that Biden won just because Trump lost, it immediately means they was Fraud or it was Rigged.
With this much grass, I'd use the tri-blade thing and mow the grass first. It will mow trees up to about finger size and even when it's not sharp anymore, a wire isn't sharp either, it will still destroy grass. Afterwards take the saw blade out (I have the Stihl version) or in the woods with less/no grass take the saw immediatly.
I’ve found Honda tri blade is better than husky
@@shabalabawigman1130 I know its bad but there's probably not going to be enough evidence for anything to change :/
I’ve used these for years clearing out lanes for hunting white tail. Absolutely love them. Wouldn’t really attack anything over 3” in diameter
Cody... That was some NEXT LEVEL slo-mo panorama action!
I have one of these blade on my Efco vintage string trimmer with the same handle set up and harness and its awesome! I literally have made 1 mile of trails with it, its nice to use it to cut the original trail and have room to come back with the chainsaw and grab the bigger stuff! I love it! Its been instrumental for forest management on our homestead! Thanks for sharing your take on it!
I would like to recommend a tip I started using: Mount BOTH the blade and the string head. Basically using the string head as the nut to secure the blade.
This gives several pros
1) You don't run the blade into the ground and rocks as easy, since the head will keep the ground clearance.
2) You have both the blade and string at the ready. If you are in mostly grass, you bump the head to get string and when you get to more rough stuff, you don't bump and the string will wear down to the blade size and the blade takes over. On my trimmer the string is 400 mm (15.5 in) and the blade is only 230 mm. (9 in) so the string is much more efficient on light to medium grass.
3) The blade acts as a disc that prevents long grass spinning with the string head and build on the axel. (that why I tried doing this). I use the Stihl blade with 8 small teeths.
4) If there is a small tree in the grass that normally would kill the string, the blade snaps it in the first swipe. Saving time and string.
Probably not endorsed by any machine manufacturer, but it works great. Just make sure your setup has enough thread sticking out, so the head is secure.
Cons are bad
@@tylerluck378 thanks. Must have been real tired or typing with my elbows
great review on the blade, don't forget to use that cup like piece on the underside of the blade, it stops the nut and thread from getting damaged and the blade from hitting the ground.
idk how you do it but you upload right at the perfect time for me !
Me too. We were thinking about getting some goats to clear the woods. This seems why faster. Just ordered one for myself!
I use and love the renegade blades. I think I use the 64 tooth version. Maybe 54 tooth, I don't remember off hand. But works great. -- The trick with these blades are that you need high rotation and go at the material with a strong swing.
A 10” carbide tipped saw blade on a good powerful weed eater is one of my favorite forestry tools. It will really zip through all of the small saplings. East Coast!! /throws gang signs/
The kerf is easily half of the chainsaw blade version he is using which makes it work a LOT better. Less strain on that small motor too.
@@kirkjohnson9353 indeed!
Those are designed only for a perfect vertical cut so you might want to stop using that. While you've gotten by so far, it's a ticking time bomb just waiting to shatter. There not designed at all for any kind of side to side force
Check out project farm on UA-cam, he has a video reviewing the best weed trimming blade for brush! Great video!
Agreed
@@tentingaroundflorida but the lawn mower still runs
Project Farm is a personal favorite. Farmabaygo for the win!
RYOBI has a brush cutter trimmer attachment in their Expandit lineup.
Not only that but almost everything and will do everything
You knows you’re an OG subscriber if you remember Cody cutting down trees with a full blade on the weed eater at the old homestead😝
I do remember. I think it was a 10” table saw blade he put on there.
Damn that wasnt that long ago was it?!
I been using that blade for about a year my experience is exactly the same. I have cleared brush & multi floral rose bushes which are very difficult to cut up ,when they are fully grown multi floral roses are painful to get close enough to cut the base & then cut them up that blade has made the task easier.Thanks for all you do God Bless you and your family
I was one of the ones who recommended this to you in the last video. I'm glad I could give back at least something after learning so much from you!
I’ve had a lawn care business for years and worked for one from the time I was 16. Me and everyone I know have always used skill saw blades. You can buy 3 or more for the price of brush blades and will get more cutting for the money. I’ll use it for low hanging branches, clearing underbrush, and have even cut through some smaller trees with it when my chainsaw quit. Also once you remove that guard you’ll throw them in the trash every time you get a new one. You get more grass on you but being able to run the line longer and the weight reduction is more than worth it
How does that affect the slinging of rocks, pebbles, and etc?
I've got the fs 91 r and use it to weed-eat my neighbor's, two others he hooked me up with, and my parents. I love it and it blows the troy bilt I had before out of the water.
My younger brother is also learning on it, so would it be smart to take it off with him still somewhat inexperienced?
Wow, that is pretty cool Cody!
I've not seen one of those over here, but we have what is basically a 10" tablesaw blade that goes on the trimmer, carbide tip. They are throw-a-way, once they get dull, but they cost only about $10.
Cheers from Tokyo!
Stu
That sounds safer and more effective
Same here in Australia, a normal table or circular saw blade works fine. Only thing you need to be aware of is the need to check the speed rating of the blade against the opperational RPM of your trimmer.
Husqvarna has the scarlet saw blades which are brushcutter blades; however, as long as the arbor size matches your straight shaft trimmer it will work. I have one installed on a 129l Husky trimmer and it works wonders.
when he started laughing at 3:21 i expected his next words to be "let me show you it's features"
Ah I see your a man of german culture aswell
Love the slingshot channel!
Hah! Hah! Hah!

As a qualified arborist, don't remove the guard, especially when using a brush cutting attachment.
Risk assessment alone tells you that the danger that it'll bounce off something and with a saw blade on it potentially chop you.
Agreed. I can understand the attraction but honestly this thing looks like a big problem. If you need the power of a chain saw then use a proper chain saw. And do wear proper pants and a helmet.
I can't imagine how the guard would help with that tool honestly. For it to "chop you" it would have to spin around toward you or kick back around 180*. So basically by the time it got around to you, the guard would be on the wrong side anyway.
@@JC-fj7oo it's a circular saw blade.
In industry we are taught that the corners of the bar are the highest risk of kick back.
That thing is all corner....
Kick back happens directly backwards from the point of catching and could propel the blade directly back at his legs.
The guard could prevent serious damage to your shins.
@@paulrichardspencer Think about where he is holding the device... Physics doesn't suddenly turn off when using a chainsaw.
If the saw caught and pushed it straight back, the force would angle downward, as it's intended to by the design of the handles, and the blade would safely hit into the ground.
For the blade to go straight back and cause damage in an area that would be covered by the guard, he would literally have both shoulders dislocated, or his arms ripped off .
Furthermore, no, it's not a corner. Chainsaws catch on their ends because it goes around a TIGHT bend around the end of the narrow bar with a quick transition to a straight line. This blade is 9" in diameter, with NO transition. There is no corners. Circles don't have corners.
Furthermore, when he is cutting, you can see he is using the left side of the blade which is spinning toward him, so if it did catch, it would pull the saw safely AWAY from him.
The guard is for preventing little bits of grass and whatnot from getting on your clothes. That's it.
When i was a teen and that was many moon ago when they came out with the eco weed eater my uncle got tired of the trim line so we put a skill saw blad on one and we cut sapplings and hay fresh for the horeses and it woork great.
Not sure I have ever had the need to take the guard off, they have a cutter to get the string length correct. What a beast of a blade.
I have to tell you brother, your videos have been a lamplight to my soul. I truly love your content, quality, information the whole gambit! I LOVE IT! I grew up on a farm in southwest MO (Ozarks) and I have learned/applied a lot of what you do often. Thank you for everything you do!
Axes are for cutting off toes and hatchets are for cutting off fingers. I know an old man who told me once that you should never in any circumstance have one of your appendages at the opposite end of a blades direction. I realize he has gloves on. And I say this with all the respect in the world for this real man. Holding a log with one hand and striking a blade right down the line is very dangerous.
A technique i use is to push the wood into the axe blade just enough to hold it, then strike the cutting log, makes a very audible pop sound.
@@SGTvolcan never liked that method i usually hold it or let go and swing or better yet use the log splitter
Diablo blades are best
You have obviously not split much kindling
Safety Sally's in the building!
As technician with over 25 years experience in this type of equipment never remove the guard it's there to protect in you and others from flinging debris and with string Line over loading the clutch and gearbox leading to early failure
Right, I would think wearing chainsaws Chaps would be a good idea if your taking off guard
I run clearing saws and we got a message from our overlords saying other operators in the region have been working with their guards off. I can't imagine how stupid you would have to be to take the guard off a saw that cuts through a 5 inch hardwood in two seconds. I guess they don't like having feet.
I've had one for over 10yrs, same one, use it all the time.
All i can say is wow! Definitely ordering one of those. I have the perfect spot to use it. Thanks for the review.
I used to use a pneumatic pole saw on a bucket truck back around the millennium. Definitely not as advanced as this blade but hella fun. Love the channel. Enjoy your new hacienda!
Check out Yosemite Prepper on UA-cam. He makes prepping videos (I’m a fan)
Hi Cody, good honest review. I would definitely consider some lower leg protection. Debris is going to come off that blade a a fair rate.
He wear some sort of copper pants made for chainsaw work so maybe thats enough for him, he seems like the sort of guy to wear long thick wool socks so I’m sure he’ll be fine with the socks and chainsaw pants
Thanks for this video! I've got an old FS106 straight shaft with the bicycle handle bars. This would work great for cleaning up my wood lot
I have a Forrester blade exactly like that! I also happened to have an older Makita worm saw that the blade fits perfectly in the guard and the arbor, I use it for cutting pressure treated posts and oak or cedar posts , or any other thick hardwood.
Also works great for cutting mill cut lumber that is still wet and a regular blade wont cut through.
I have used a variety of these different blades ,, they are NOT for weed trimmers,, they are for brush cutters ,, usually built a little stronger...some work better than others...most I have used are carbide tipped.....just need to stay off rocks and away from steel posts etc....
Made for ditch type shrubs and brush , milkweed, sunflower stalks, etc. and up to about 1" new growth trees .... also not enough for trees and/or de-limbing above your head... obvious safety issues...used correctly ,,leave the guards on...
Thanks for this video I didn’t even know these existed! I have a bag of blades similar to yours and none seem to hold an edge the test of time. I hope this one does👍
I have an FS460 e-cm Stihl clearing saw and the chisel toothed blade is a beast.
We have been running the Stihl FS460 for over a year now - we use 80T carbide tip blades available from Amazon - it bites into trees more smoothly than the chainsaw toothed circular saw blades..
I used something similar in the early 80's and it was old then, when I was a groundsman for the Alberta School for the Deaf. Instead of a circular chain cutting surface it had a solid steel blade similar to a skill saw. It worked great on grass and thick and dense weed growth, but the safety factor has to be considered. I guess that's why I didn't see them around after that and never seen them before.
Old Format editing and vibe. This is more like the Wranglerstar I fell in love with.
My dad always had a small fire going in the fire pit in the backyard every time he worked outside. I will do the same just to have that smell of wood smoke in the air while I'm working out in the garden or mowing grass or whatever needs to be done outside, I love it. Then I usually cook over the coals in the evening😋
I work for Texas Parks and Wildlife as a State Park Ranger and we use and love that brush trimmer. Great piece of equipment.
While watching you put the blade on, I noticed you didn't have a cup under the nut that our FS460 has... the cup spreads the tension out over a wider surface area...
Cold?? It’s still nearly 80 degrees in Indiana!
Yea its ridiculous
Crazy for November huh? Hello fellow Hoosier. Hope your and your family are doing amazing.
I live in southern Louisiana, it’s usually 80 degrees and more humid than a sauna down here almost year round
I live in Delaware, and it's had a weather identity crisis since I've been alive. It's been down to the 40s and up to the high 70s.
Phoenix hit 99 degrees on November 5th.
I know this is an old post, however thought I may add here that I frequently use a circular saw blade on my straight shaft trimmer - I find it works great. Even cut through small trees.
Thank you for your continued work Cody I love your content.
Thank you for this video! I have about an acre to clear that has tons of small and medium size saplings (no grass) and I’ve been looking for a blade that’ll do the job. No other video on YT shows land like this being cleared in this manner. All other videos just show cutting through the thickest piece of wood or tree, which isn’t what I need. I have a chainsaw for that.
Great demonstration! God Bless!
great for crowd control

We have been using a 10” carbide tipped table saw blade on our Stihl for years. Wind it up to high rpm and swing it, it will cut through a 3” pine instantly

Hi Cody, the blade looks good but I found that for cutting down saplings, brush, etc., a circular saw blade with tungsten carbide cutting teeth is better. Sure, the teeth can snap off, but the tungsten carbide will last a hell of a lot longer. In a regular circular saw, the tungsten carbide teeth will cut through nails and screws with out dulling. With your line trimmer, you can cut the saplings and suckers off at ground level and not worry about the teeth wearing out fast. As for the TPI, go for more, rip saw blades are great in tools that have lots of power but for your line trimmer go for more TPI. As you always say, let the tool do the work.
From my experience, tungsten carbide blades are better than 4/1 performance/price ratio over the rest, including that cheap chainsaw disc. Your mileage may vary.
Check out the Stihl version of the forester blade. I’ve used both chainsaw tooth type blades, and the Stihl blade works far superior! It cuts VERY aggressively, has less mass so it spins up faster and doesn’t bog down, and has a wider curf, which is ideal for this type of cutting. I actually use it to trim encroaching branches back on trails. It’s harder to find the Stihl blades, though.
I've used the Sthil version kit for a couple years and it's like a chainsaw weed eater. I've cut young 4" diameter pine trees down, pruned trees, trimmed limbs and bushes with it so far so good.
Can the Stihl be used on a Husky?
I have always just used worn out table saw blades.
Smart
Loving the progress Cody. The road noise is getting quieter and quieter the farther you push into the land. Excited for the day you look back at the land you worked by your own hand and see it flourishing.
wow what cool tool my in-laws have 5 acres , I do most of the clearing since I'm an arborist . this would be great for all the young whips ( saplings ) thanks !
You forgot to put the shield that goes under the blade it keeps the debris out of the gear head. It is a wise idea to use the rider cup it protects the nut that holds the blade on. I’ve used the brush knife I have the Stihl saw blade it works okay. It doesn’t matter what you use there’s always hidden rocks you inevitably whack with the blade.
Agree with this comment. I have the Stihl circular saw blade. It works well. This one looks a little more beefy for a similar price. You should be using the shield plate, then saw blade, then convex washer then the rider cup, then the nut.

Field tip: weld a vise stand to a hitch receiver square tube. Mount the vise to front of your sidexside to service chainsaws, tools etc.
I have something like this blade for my DR Trimmer/Mower on wheels. On the DR Trimmer/Mower you can cut up to 3 inches. The DR that I have has a 8.5 HP Briggs and Stratton commercial engine.

hello David Paradis

It’s not about if you want the guard on there or not. It’s all about what Mrs. W wants
Awesome blade and great video. I'm going to have to buy one for my FS-250R and KM-94R. Thank you for this video and God bless you and your family.
Seems like a reasonable set up. I noticed him saying it was hard on the trimmer w the bigger trees. Those are all pretty aggressive blades. They make ones that are basically skill saw blades for ripping a finer tooth. W the correct angle they wont bind and easily cut bigger trees.
Been using them on the east coast for 20 + years!
When I first saw this I thought it was meant for a angle grinder. I was glad to see it wasn’t. They do make these for angle grinders. Those have to be the most dangerous tool ever concocted. If you see one of these cutting tools design for angle grinders think long and hard about it.
I bought my forestry blade earlier this summer and was amazed how well it worked ! I ordered two more as spares and never needed to craw around on my knees w/ my chain saw!
I recommend the Oregon re sharpenable ones
That opening is pretty artsy like it
It does seem like a excellent blade but the sound of that motor is underpowered for sure, maybe it would be optimized for the commercial strimmer. Good video
I have been using those since I was a kid. They work great for brush. I live in Louisiana and we use them a lot in clearing deer lanes.
I had a mowing business in the early 90’s, & had a chain on a disc back then. Was awesome.

I dont understand all those thumbs down people . If you dont like this guy then why are you watching him ? I think he is a great guy. I dont understand all the hate. May you be blessed by the grace of god and much love to you Wranglerstar . I think they are just hating on you because you say god bless .
This is pretty ingenious because the disk can be just whatever junk steel, and the cutting chains can be as high quality as possible. Pretty neat
On level ground I far prefer the DR trimmer with the "beaver" blade attachment. Its great for clearing jungle thick invasive buckthorn. Stihl makes a brush clearing blade that works well, but the DR is less than half the work when the ground is flat . . . about as much work as using a push lawnmower. I just carry a can of Fluid Film and give the blade a spritz every few minutes.
The weed trimmer guard is on there for the people who don't wear chainsaw chaps or pants, who would then sue the company after they get a cut on their leg.
I was just watching the tree house build. The film quality in this video is a thousand times better!
The camera views with speed ups and slow mo angles was superb in this video. I appreciate that
U going to mess your bolt up if u don’t use the dome lol 😂
Stihl has a commercial blade for their clearing saw. It’s expensive but man does it work.
Hey @wrenglerstar i think that the husqvarna scarlett 225-24t is a better fit for the work you are doing. I am a forestry worker in the netherlands and we use these kinds of blades on trees till about 15 cm thicknes. You can also use the the smaller 200-21t kind, this blade turns faster and uses less fuel. Hope i can help, greeting from the Netherlands.
Used these for 15 years now and there awesome
Crazy is right. Really should have a guard on there. That blade kicks back or falls off and hits an artery and you are done.
Be careful. A coworker I knew lost some toes when one of those caught the ground.
Don't use bladed "weed whackers" in flipflops - steel toes are handy... (Sometimes insufficient)
@@geesss8675 lol while you are correct it could've happened to anyone of us. The guy it happened to is a hard and safe worker. And it ate through his boot behind the steel toes actually. So when I say it took off some toes it really took off some foot.

@@geesss8675 Jesus wore steel toed sandals. lmao. Now that's a mental image.
all I have to saw is BS. - How do you get close enough to the blade to get hurt? ----- Answer is,,,, You don't -----It's impossible unless you have arms that are six feet long.
I bought what they're calling the Oregon brush cutter blade 28 years ago. Easy to remember, I bought it when I bought my house. I still use it. All I have to do is sharpen it at the beginning of the season and it's good. I can cut 2" trees, no problem. I get it up to speed, to the left of it about midway down the blade and move it over. In a fraction of a second it's through and slows the blade to about 50%. I wish my chainsaw blades were like that. One very tough blade. It doesn't have riveted teeth like this one does. It's all part of the disc.
homelite use to make one for the straight shaft ones back in the day, i had one and loved it for clearing unknown land. ran into a fence and cut down 4x4 fence posts by going around the base. you want a straight shaft one too cause curved shaft has that flex line in it.
no guard and no facecover. that is one big step towards beeing blind
Hands down the best Zombie killing weapon Ever!
thank you
A tool your happy with that works really good for your use is worth its weight in gold no matter what the price is
