Sold NOS Stihl 1/2" Full Chisel Chain

[NewToStihl]

I have five NOS 84DL loops of Stihl 1/2", .063 full chisel chain I'm selling. The pictures below are of an open one but the six to be sold are still sealed in their packages. I also have some Oregon 1/2" presets available to make these into different lengths if needed.

Asking $300 each, shipped & insured within the United States. I'm willing to ship internationally but additional shipping costs will apply. My price is net, so the buyer is responsible for any fees associated with the chosen method of payment.

May I ask what makes them worth so much?

I'm sure you could find varying opinions on both the value and answer to your question, but in a word, scarcity. 1/2"/.063 full chisel chain is, to some, quite desirable and it's getting difficult to find.

Yes, asking $300 each as the ad states.

Folks 1/2" chisel is VERY tough to find and when you do it is most clapped out or destroyed as race chain with the side plates filed down

1/2 inch isnt hard to find per say, its specifically the .063 gauge. My homelite, sears (re badged David bradly) and David bradly all take 1/2 .063.
Stihl chain commands a premium price, over other brands, then the full chisel is worth a bit too. Way out of my price range for investing in a bunch of shelf queens.

How much 1/2 chisel do you have on David Bradley saws?

NOS 1/2” chain in any gauge or tooth profile is getting difficult to find. .058 and .063 gauge both are difficult, .050 is even harder yet, and when you add full chisel tooth profile to that, it’s incredibly hard to find. I don’t think I’ve seen 5 loops of Stihl 1/2” full chisel sell in the past 10 years. I’ve bought plenty of saws just to get the chains off of them, it is rarely chisel.

I only have one David Bradley saw, it's a 95cc gear drive and it has 1/2" pitch chain.
