im with you on the touch up out of the package deal treevet. ive had poeple tell me im crazy. they say that i cant sharpen the chain as sharpe as it comes from the factory. so i let em cut with it new....take it...sharpen it..then they agree.
If you ever cross paths with one of these Chris (you may have already tried one and don't like it) you might give it a try. I like them and file can be replaced.
