Best Chainsaw Sharpener Test? Timberline vs Knockoff

Рет қаралды 260,955

Жыл бұрын

I bought a chainsaw sharpener from Amazon about two years ago. Many people shamed me for buying a Chinese knockoff of the Timberline chainsaw sharpener. In my defense, Timberline is not sold on Amazon and I had no idea they were a company. Still, the little Chinese knockoff version worked well, so I made the video. The results speak for themselves. It just works. Over the last year, many people have bought the Chinese sharpener after watching my video and many people told me it did not work for them. I heard this enough, I thought I should make a comparison video. Here it is.
Note: There are about 25 different Chinese Manufacturers of this product. I just picked one with highly positive comments. This video can't speak to every chainsaw sharpener of this style. It only represents the one at this link: amzn.to/3IUP5DU

When you wonder why fewer companies are putting the effort into bringing new products to market, it's partially due to the fact that the Chinese waste no time in coming out with an inferior copy. It's criminal what they do as they have no qualms about stealing someone's design.

I ordered a timberline with out even knowing that the knockoffs existed. Freeze this vid at say 12.05 (timberline). Even with this tighter tolerance USA made product I wasn’t happy with the amount of slide anvil unsupported in the channel.(little over 50% ) , and this is on a chain that has nearly all the tooth life on it. Once you sharpen to the end of the chains life only 30% in channel ! What I did is punch out the roll pin and turn both swing arms around. This improved things in two ways. 1) A more consistent back stop reference, (vertical surface vrs a sloping surface) 2) Allowed far more channel engagement of sliding anvil, thus more precise and consistent sharpening. I run small saws with 4mm chains so I just got away with modifying my timberline this way. Larger chain operators might find minimum extension on anvil still isn’t enough to allow sharpening on relatively new chains. Without knowing better I honestly thought Timberline made a mistake in assembly of this tool on my particular build.It makes no sense to have an angled surface for a reference?! Perhaps the angle helps to keep the chain pushed down to the bar so it doesn’t rise with respect to the reamer ? Which ever way the backstops are used Timberline should lengthen the channel (one side) and slider by half inch . Then dial in the stroke / roll pin relationship for real application usefulness across sharpening life for various chain sizes. ‘A great quality tool but falls over on the execution’

I bought the Chinese knock-off because I didn't want to spend a lot. I've never sharpened a chain saw and don't use it much. Didn't take long until the race was scored up and it wants to bind, and the cutter doesn't cut very well (but maybe I'm expecting it to do more than I should). I was going to get the Dremmel tool type that I saw my brother-in-law use back in the day, but I figured the spin would cause too much heat. I'm just puzzled at this point, with a still-dull chainsaw blade.

Well, my chainsaws HAVE been sitting around in recent years - since we moved into town where trees are small enough to maintain with a cordless sawzall. My Stihl 020 is adequate for most stuff, but recently I had to pull out my 084 and discovered that, in its years of lethargy in my garage, it had put on nearly as much weight as I have! Unfortunately, its square chisel chain would be seriously de-fanged by your handy-dandy little sharpener, but it would be FINE for my 020s and my electric pole saw. Tools to maintain tools - what a glorious concept!

@peterweth 8 ай бұрын

I would imagine if you have to adjust the timberline when switching teeth direction, it’s from inconsistencies made when sharpening by hand. Assuming a good chain, the tool and chain are machined to have “perfect” mirror dimensions. I’m thinking on previously hand sharpened chains, the initial sharpening will take longer to remove those inconsistencies. It’s likely you’ll have to go back and forth until you get each tooth down to the lowest ground tooth. Just a thought and great video. Will be going with timberline and experiment with my theory.

@kbittorf335 5 ай бұрын

I have had the Timberline for a number of years. I must adjust the stop everytime when switching from left side to right side cutters or vice versa. If not it‘s either cutting too much or not enough when switching sides. In my measurements all cutters are within .005“ of each other and the chains cut great! The PITA is setting the depth gauges after. Works best with newer chain. It‘s a lot of work with used chain with irregular teeth to get everything down to the smallest sized cutter. Feels like you‘re sharpening thousands of pencils!

@conormichael7964 7 ай бұрын

The timberline is definitely better and lasts longer but in my opinion it’s not needed, learning to hand file i easy and way cheaper, and saw teeth don’t need to be the exact same, if you rock one tooth you don’t need to take them all back, you just take that one tooth back to sharp and take down that one raker. When I first started I was obsessed with getting them all perfectly the same but it’s not needed and it wastes a lot of chain life. I also can get a much sharper chain hand filing than that will get because I can change my angles for different wood species and time of year. Don’t get me wrong those are decent tools but I really don’t think they are necessary

@kevindecker9444 Ай бұрын

Also the reason one turns the handle clockwise is the turning action forces the chain back against the stop. Saw some other idiot trying to determine if clockwise was from the handle or the bit side.

Not a single Timberline marked sharpener shown on Amazon on 3/3/2024 looks like yours. Crank handle different. Sharpening file spurs are all like your knockoff with a diamond coating and not with auger flutes. Not with replaceable guide shafts. Not with twin tooth holding tabs, etc. Looks like either they’re all counterfeits on Amazon or Timberline has made a bunch of design changes.

Timberline doesn't sell on Amazon. I put a link in the description.

Lean your high jet out a little!

It is about as lean as I want it. It run great. Mics don't always give the viewer the right sound.

What type of saw? Echo? Has now power for the size

@TonysTractorAdventure 11 ай бұрын

Thank you for your opinion.

@johnmagnuson491 11 ай бұрын

So what type of saw are you using? I'm seriously curious. No bad intention.

@TonysTractorAdventure 11 ай бұрын

I own two Echo saws and two NEO-TEC saws.

@johnmagnuson491 11 ай бұрын

Thank you. Do you actually prefer them over the "name brands"? Buddy told me the big echo is actually good now. I have husqvarna saws with one craftsman 14 inch. Wich I'm actually impressed with.

I have found, good maintenance is the life of any brand. I had an old Pouland Pro for 8 years. I gave it to a friend. He still uses from time to time.

TIMBERLINE IS BETTER. I messed up and bought the other junk. Threw it away and bought a Timberline.

90% of accidents are cuts to the lower legs. He should have own leather chainsaw chaps.

I’m curious If anyone has tried these with a low speed drill instead of a hand crank? Imo diamond is a highly overrated sharpening technology in some applications.

I would guess it would over heat the races and wear out fast.

Learn to use a file!.. how long does this take if you tap a rock..I would rather be cutting than frigging around with this thing!

with the chinese copy, he specifically did everything wrong to promote timberline

@TonysTractorAdventure 5 ай бұрын

I think you may be basing your comment on your own internal integrity compass. I personally am not for sale. The first video I put out about the Chinese version works perfectly. I bought a new one and the timber line to compare because so many people complained about the Chinese version they bought after watching my first video. Good luck with your integrity.

I sharpen all 3 of my chainsaw's chains with a file and guide. I ain't never messed up one yet. Except after sharpening a chain on one of my Husqvarna's it began to cut crooked. I forgot to sharpen the other side. Duh! I knew immediately what I'd done. There's no way I'd ever pay that for a chain sharpener when a file will do the same thing. Cheers from eastern TN

Thank you for your point of view. It is not for everyone. Love East TN.

No way can you hand file a chain as good as the Timberline. IMPOSSIBLE CANT BE DONE!!! Unless you're a legend in your own mind
