Sorry could not find posting from the other day and search still dont work for this old farmer.
Tried a loop of Stihl RSK today after reading about it here. No timed cuts but noticably faster with the ole 036 in about 12" of dry Oak as compared to new loop of RSC. Dealer said "how did you know about RSK?" and said they only sell it to those who ask for it? I suppose some liability deal? If we make the Ohio Gathering I will bring some along for the chain scientists to check out as all I can see is a slight change in the depth gauges. The RSK worked the 36 hard enough that I had to hold up just slightly on the saw to keep RPMS up, I was impressed.
