I apologize if this is a silly question. I know that such a small bar is really not often used, but in my case the weight is a factor. I'd rather use a small saw for cleaning up.
Back to the question..
Which 12" chain lasts longest between sharpenings?
Thanks in advance
 
A carbide like mentioned will last the longest but sacrifice speed in the cut, it also requires a diamond to sharpen and they are quite costly. This is actually kinda a loaded question as how long a chain stays sharp depends on what your cutting and how clean the wood Is, how many times you ram the chain in the dirt ect.
