I have a 12' Corona pole saw and it is a workout to cut with it. Corona sells a better blade for it, but it is only "better" by Home Depot / homeowner type standards. I do some freelance landscaping can use a pole saw once in a while. I am trying to decide on an upgrade:

1. Get a better blade for the pole I have - not sure how good the new blade will be.
2. Get a Silky - is the Hayate or Hayauchi a better saw? How much do they run $$ ?
3. Get a used Echo or Stihl HT - they are not cheap and I already have enough small motors to repair and maintain.

BTW, I wrote to Silky and asked if their replacement blades might fit a Corona head. That might be a good option also.
