Review: This is the best chain sharpener I've ever used! - Bottom line up front: Try this sharpener. It is totally worth it if you can get the hang of using it (which is easy)! I'll preface this review by admitting that I don't have a ton of experience with chainsaws. (But this sharpener works great for a novice) When I started cutting my own firewood, I tried using a handheld chain sharpener, that I got cheap with the saw, with zero luck. I don't know if I just didn't have the patience to do it right, but it just didn't get the chain the sharpness I wanted. I bought a kit that went in the dremel, once again, not a solution. I did a little better with that, but the "angles got off" according to the guy that I brought the chains to to get sharpened. The only good solution was to carry multiple chains, and swap them if they started getting dull, then bring all the dull ones in to the local dealer to get them sharpened. Then I saw some videos, reviews, etc on the Stihl version of this (which costs a lot more) and thought I would give the Pferd a try, as from what I can tell, they are the same. It look a little bit to get used to it, but once I got the hang of it, it works fast and gives you a razor sharp chain. Operating it is simple, I like to set the saw on a table or tailgate, stand to one side, figure out which end of the sharpener to hold, and then start sharpening. The angle on the tool helps me keep the correct angle on the sharpener. Once the entire chain is done from the one side, I turn the saw around, and go end for end with the tool, and repeat with the other teeth. Usually 3 passes per tooth on a dull chain, and it's razor sharp again. There's no need to take the chain off, or drive to the dealer to get it sharpened. I always sharpen after a day of cutting, and usually that's sufficient, but it's easy to sharpen in the woods also. I really didn't think I'd ever get away from getting the chains professionally sharpened, but this inexpensive tool has already saved me over $100 in sharpening costs. Not to mention prolonging the life of the chain, as I've heard some other people complain about the amount of material the dealership takes off when they sharpen. I don't have to be constantly worried that I might dull my chain and have to bring it to the dealer. Possibly the best indication that I love this tool is that I bought one for my dad. He's a dremel sharpening devotee, but I'm working on getting him to incorporate this, because I really believe that this is the best way to maintain your chains. It also works really quickly, maybe 10 minutes to sharpen a 20 inch chain.
Review: EASILY the best guide/sharpener I've used - BUY IT. Period. EASILY the best guide/sharpener I've used. I was COMPLETELY skeptical that this would be anything more than just "another" file/guide jig. The designer ABSOLUTELY NAILED it with this thing. It'll probably make you throw any other guide you have in the trash. Absolutely BLOWS the Husqvarna roller guide DIRECTLY in the trash, along with the Oregon guide that clips onto your round file. Makes the Granberg jig that works FLAWLESSLY seem archaic and overly complicated, and sharpening a saw chain is NOT complicated. I swear 99% of these devices make things WAY more complicated than they need to be. You'll also be treated to the quality of Pferd files, which if you haven't used in the past you'll be certainly be BEYOND pleased by the sharpness and longevity of them. Bottom line, this guide TRULY provides all the simplicity, convenience and consistency anyone could ever want in a file guide. Cutters sharpened and the rakers filed down appropriately relative to the cutters. No gimmics, No setup time AT ALL. No nothing. "I file my chains by hand" is something you'll commonly hear from the sawyer vets. Cool, that's something that's certainly doable, especially if you're in the trade, but if you give this guide to the BEST hand filer and they say it's ANYTHING but an improvement on hand filing, they're lying. This IS hand filing, with a guide. Not one that physically controls ANYTHING but rather keeps your file strokes in check in the MOST simple of ways. This guide IMO is as perfect a guide as can be made for a chainsaw, blowing away the competition in the process. It's not $45 for no reason.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works much better than expected!
*by A***D on May 24, 2026*

Wow is what I will start with, this thing works way better than I could have expected. I hand sharpen my chains and because the way my bench is setup I always tend to favor one side, which after a while leads to the chain pulling to one side when cutting. I decided to give this tool a try and also bought a new chain because I figured my old one was not worth saving. When this arrived I figured I would at least try it on my old chain, not expecting much. Well it totally corrected my chain after just one use. I was blown away by how well it cut, it was like a new chain. I’m totally a believer now and the only problem I have is that I didn’t buy one sooner!
