As long as the wood is clean it will work fine. If it's dirty square or round chisel isn't really going to hold up very good. I've used square on 4 year old standing dead chestnut, red oak that's been down a year and a half and it held up fine. You might want to try a loop or two before getting a grinder and see how they hold up before they lose their edge. Some people love it and others think it's not that much faster than round. If you have some .063 bars I have some chains here you could try.
Thanks for the offer. I've got quite a few .063s in the 20, 32 & 36 range. I've got the one 36 incher that came with the Contra S and liked it when we used it but I think the rakers are too high on it as the chips were quite small. I'd love to try a properly sharpened and trued chain.
