However when you run a saw 40-50hrs a week good anti-vibe is huge. I don't hate STIHL but Husky's feel better to me and i get get dealer support from Husky. My top handles are STIHL though and i have a 361.

Fair enough. But isn't the spring AV Sthil is starting to implement in their saws comparable? I know the 460 I bought don't have the spring av, which was one main reason I was looking at the 441cm. But for the same weight and more power and SAME price I went with the 460. I don't cut but on the weekends and was debating on getting anti-vibe gloves anyway.
Vibes are relevant in a thread about the 460, as some just can't stand the vibes from that saw.
..if you can stand the violent vibes! :msp_sad:

Have you ever ran one? or just reading off of some spec sheet?
Bcause they probably live half their life with their hands dipped in a jar of petroleum jelly...
UH OH don't ask that question :msp_tongue:
Had to clean my screen off after that one :msp_tongue:

Well, people react very differently to vibes - if it doesn't bother you, that's fine!
...but there still may be long term effects from it, you never know for sure before they appear...
yep well the missus loves a little vibe action, dosent bother her ...infact the long term effect is benifical, and the effect appears pretty much instant. :msp_drool:Well, people react very differently to vibes - if it doesn't bother you, that's fine!

I screwed up a couple of weeks ago and bought a MS 460 and now I'm stuck with it. With the "violent vibes" this saw has I'm terrified to even use it. It might hit the resonate frequency and fly apart on me at any time. The biggest problem is that I'm stuck with it now. Since this thing has such bad "violent vibes", I doubt I could even get anyone to buy it. I wish I would have saved my money and went to Home Depot and bought a electric chainsaw instead of a saw that vibrates so bad that it's completely unusable! thanks for opening up my eyes ST! I surely would be dead from this thing if it wasn't for you! I'll be sure to take it to the scrap yard tomorrow and get it crushed before anyone else gets hurts too. I think I might file a class action lawsuit against Stihl for selling such a horrible product!

Nice saw WV. I own both a 460 and a 441, and if you don't run them side by side, you'll likely never notice the 460's vibe's. If you do, then you will.
Exactly what the dealer said! Since I will mostly be doing work on the weekends, I think I'll deal with it. After all I knew this going in. Dealer and most people recommend, for the same weight, the 460 having more power is the way to go. I know the 441 is a good saw too. Just went for the 460, I know I will be happy.
My next saw may be a 441, or 362.
