What's is there to like about wrap handles anyway?

I think it would be a lot of trouble to unbolt it, just send me the whole dang saw.

This thing is wrapped in electrical tape. I doubt you would want it.

My offer was the first and was valid. I see now many other have made offers to trade with you. I guess it is your choice in what the right thing to do is

Geez..guys you think this was made of gold or something. I actually just told him to pay for shipping and he could have it for free. I'm not even selling it to him. I got a used standard handle off Ebay for like $20. There are wrap handles on there for like $30 if you look hard enough. He was the first to PM me about it and I told him if he paid for the shipping he could have it. I don't have time to go around and PM people to see if they want this worn out handle wrapped in tape. If you wanted it that bad you should have done what he did and PM me, and then I would have sent it to you for free. Don't get your panties in a wad over it.

I know this thread is about Stihl, but...
All my big saws have full wrap, and I am in the pricess of getting another for my 288 XP (Thanks Bradf).
To me a saw is much easier to use with full wrap and looks better as well!
