I've never run one, but I know there's a reason everybody is after one.

So I've been researching felling wedges and it would appear people are favoring plastic wedges exponentially over anything else. I can't imagine them lasting very long

Plastic since it does not destroy your chain if hit. They last a while actually

I got 2 Stihl wedges for Christmas. They seem very sturdy. Used the smaller to release saw once and worked well. The metal ones I've heard people shy away from because it can have pieces break off and cause injury

Plastic wedges would be better on your axe for beating in

That account was created 2 days ago and that's the first post. A little fishy to me

But I'm also a pessimist and a doubter

That's what everybody was saying, they make some called a hard head wedge that have a steel strike plate on the butt

And if you hit them with your saw it doesn't mess up your chain

Don't bash my poulans and I won't bash your stihls--Wait how can I bash them When every tree service/city/DOT/county--------I see says we use STIHL--STIHL----I guess I will just go pull the cord on my stuck ms390

Actually, it's legit, that craigslist listing was on my area perusal for chainsaws, and his location is legit for the area they were in.

I don't actually have anything against Poulan. It's all fun and games bud. I don't personally like the way they look but I don't mind them. I'll poke fun at huskies too and I still like the newer ones. I'll poke at anything for fun lol
