like you said both are good for small jobs or one off jobs . I wonder how available the self sharpening chain will be in a few years, also seems like a great way to sell more chains .
Excellent comparison Taras Schevchenko!! That self sharpening feature on the Oregon is really innovative. I'm guessing they applied for several patents on that one as they should. Oregon is well known for their chainsaw bars and chains.
In the long run, the Oregon chainsaw is the better choice. Every logger, cedar maggot, and forrest fire fighter i have known always prefer either Stihl or Oregon.
