When a Husqvarna is not a Husqvarna

[locofrog]

That husky 35 looks just like a spartan I've got. I'll try to dig up a pic

Just a quick search revealed a 100 euro difference in price between these two, guess which was the expensive one!

To me, a husky isn't a husky unless it says "Made in Sweden" on it!

To include the saws made at the Husky factory in Brazil, and at the Tomos factory, I would change that to "unless the model has been made in Sweden".

A couple of samples where Husqvarna farmed out their saws. The first is a Husky 32, it was made by Solo in Germany. A very smooth running saw even without AV. Rivals the Stihl ms170 in that respect. Very nicely made saw, a joy to use on small trees and limbing.

The next is a Husky 35, made by EMAB in Canada. This saw is actually put together from 2 different parts saws, one a Husky, the other a Frontier (i think). Typical vibe and power of it's generation. What is noteworthy is it's weight, 9.5 lbs with half gas and oil, plus a 16" bar/chain. It has a chain brake and auto/manual oil pump, the black button on the top right of the bar.

Husqvarna is not a part of Electrolux - it is an independent company . . ! since 2006:

ABB, Atlas-Copco, Electrolux, Husqvarna and God knows how many other Swedish groups are either partially owned or controlled by the same financial outfit, Investor AB, which is controlled by the highly reclusive Wallenberg family.
I have no interest in conspiracy theories, but the whole thing is closely patterned after the Mitsubishi keiretsu, meaning the constituent companies maintain very close ties through the use of the same banks, frequent exchange of executives and having the same board members.

Sure - the Wallenberg family is the huge "octopus" in the swedish industry . . ! and the swedish banking world - SEB bank . . !

Here you have a sweet tiny 34cc non Husqvarna Husqvarna from my collection. I think it is made about 1980.
