Bar nose lower then bar

[Snatchy]

How much height difference would you consider acceptable for a new bar? I don't recall seeing one with this much offset. Pretty sure I've seen a thread on here some time ago but can't find it.

Are you questioning why the nose end is lower than the saw end? Honestly, this is something I have never considered in 50 years. If the saw has bucking spikes, the nose may sit higher. How about a photo showing the whole length of the bar?

I think he is saying that the bar tip is not quite as wide as the rest of the bar.

See this more on used bars that have tip replaced.
usually can grind down end of bar to match lower part of bar tip so that there is no bump so to speak

I had one similar but the tip was wider than the bar. I took a flat file and beveled it to make it a smoother transition. I didn't try it before I did it so I don't know if it would have been a problem.

Won't make a bit of difference. The corners will wear true with use.

Sorry I should've used better wording.
Yes the tip is 1/32+ narrow to bar creating a lip, seemed like alot for higher qaulity bar.
I did file the transition & broke in a bit longer before heavy cutting & tuning.
Because I changed a bunch of stuff I didn't want to add another possible issue. Thanks!
