The 'modern' chainsaw only came out a couple years ago. Perhaps you're familiar with it: the MS-880!

Dolmar invented the gas chain saw. Andreas Stihl pioneered pneumatic chainsaws.

Dolmar invented the gas chain saw. Andreas Stihl pioneered pneumatic chainsaws.

According to the websites of all the major manufacturers, they all were first on the market with the modern, lightweight chainsaw.

McCulloch claims to have made the first "consumer" chainsaw, I guess the first chainsaw that was designed specifically for the consumer (not pro/commercial) market.
