It might be just me, but I think a saw may feel a lot different depending on how strong you are, how big your hands are and how long your arms are. Im used to running old Homelites, so a Husky 55 is like picking up a feather, I can run one of my little saws one-handed pretty easily. I also agree with SawitAll on the "plasticky" feel, like picking up one of the new Homelites or Mac's. Theres plenty of plasticky Stihls nowdays too.
Well said. The operator's size, capabilities, experience and expectations are the most important factors when choosing a tool. It is amazing when what feels heavy and awkward to some can be perfect to others.
However, "plasticky" usually is "plasticky" to everyone.
