Stihl 6 cuber BLK on ebay SWEET!!!!!!!!

[drunkenredneck]

How many have ever ran one of these things. There is one on ebay right now under Stihl BLK. Perfect 6 cubic inch motor. Low rever but I bet it makes gobs of torque with that long stroke. What do you guys think of it I am just baffled it's so narly. http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Stihl-BLK-Germany-Army-Issued-Chain-saw_W0QQitemZ120149523501QQihZ002QQcategoryZ79669QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

There are a few mistakes in that ad;

The saw in question is the BLK-57, which is the Army version made 1954-73 - not the "plain" BLK made 1948-73, as he states.
He put the wrong BLK description in that ad.

As a sidenote, BLK-57s that is red and not Army saws are known to exist, and at least the Swiss Army used them, in addition to the West German one........

I ran an identical saw yesterday at the local harvester show. It runs very sweet and its sound is superb.

I am shocked about the price this saw has hit so far. There are plenty of these saws around in europe and go for somewhat 250 to 400 $ on ebay.

It's just downright SCARY that you know that!

It says BLK-57 on the saw (number plate), the rest I learned on a saw collector forum, some time ago........:biggrinbounce2:
