Yeah... unfortunately most trees I deal with are small, 30" or less. I definitely do the biggest trees in the area but I probably only do one a week that has a stump over 50". Usually a cottonwood, siberian elm, or maybe a silver maple. We don't have to many giants here in CO. luckily people here still plant cottonwoods.... I don't get it. I would love to get my hands on an 090 someday though... not that I need it.... I just want it
Don't have a boss. Just how do you figure this dirt gets up there? Tree does not transport dirt. Maybe you are confusing this with decay which should not dull your saw.

Another one would be decayed fecal matter from animals living in the voids. That stuff can stack up, add some moisture and you'll have an ugly looking saw when you hit it.
none of that stuff nails mentioned should dull your saw except if you got kids tossing stones in crotches and cavities which happens sometimes. dirt a foot off the ground....uh uh

I think its easier to just dump oil on the bar then keep pushing the oiler
so dump oil on it, even without the hand oiler the 3120 out cuts an 88 hands down, granted ive only run the 1 3120, the one i own, but ive run 4 or 5 different 88s over the years
Thank Youive found small rocks high up in trees on numerous occasions, likely coons or squirrels
also cut hollow logs full of sand, how it got there is a mystery, possible result of the storm that brought it down. idk, but it was in the trunk which was still standing
Yup, that and vitrified tileNothing dulls a chain faster than an old bottle thrown in a cavity.

A metal stake, or horse shoe, or even concrete will trash the chain beyond help.
still not buyin the dirt one foot up off the ground in wood. think you may be a novice. biggest thing that dulls a chain is a novice that does not properly aim the cut and does not check its progress through the stump in blind spots and just plain hits the ground. takes a little longer but worth it as does aiming the blade accurately.
that and an improperly sharpened chain that curves.
