How many are you planning to buy for me?

<---- takes a chair in the far corner of the room with on. Tries to look inconspicuous.
It's harder with the Stihl cap on though.

What were new 395XP saws selling for when they were last available?

They're still available.

I looked at the tag and it said made in Brazil.

There's a new power head only up for auction. One of those companies that buy abandoned freight. I've got some good buys like 16" Husky bars for $6 CDN and a 36" D009 Oregon Power Match bar for $25.

I can't find any info on a 395 here on the Husky site. It may be in a spot on the site where I didn't look.

I did find one at a dealer for $1350 CDN which is a little over $1000USD.

I have absolutely no use for it but if it went low enough.......

If I did get it Mark, I could rattle can it all yellow with traffic paint and send it off to you.

It doesn't come with a blade (I had to say that).

395xp in stock at my dealer here in Thompson Manitoba

Not sure what it will go for but likely it will escape my threshold.

Almost all guys using saws to make a living around here use Stihl's. We do have a great Stihl dealer (44 year family business) that is a treat to deal with and he looks after them really well.

Husky's on the other hand have horrible to zero support.

Yes it seems that way with Husqvarna out here too.
Dealer here in Thompson is Stihl/Husqvarna.

395xp really changed my feelings about Husqvarna. My initial exposure was the first generation of 550xp and 455 Ranchers, Ranchers are ok.
After using that 395xp though, I thought "well dam they do make a great saw!"
I've got a couple of L77s and they're fun to cut with but if I find a reasonably priced 395 builder I will definitely pick it up.

I sold my 2008 395xp a few years ago. Miss it now but don't miss the front tensioner.

 

[fossil]

Well it sold for $800 which with buyers premium and sales tax, $1,040 out the door. A very good buy but not a steal.
I figure he saved around $350 CDN over a dealer bought saw.

 

[Willard]

These Canadian dealer 395XP are Made in Brazil if that means anything.

Love this old 281xp, just fitted a new bar and loop of X-CUT C85 chain

 

[I saw a lot]

 

[Wolverine]

Nice!!

 

[Rogee]

Had a fun weekend with these . Looking forward to another one soon

 

[justoldsaws]

Can anyone tell me the correct starter cord thickness and length for my 281.
It has no decomp so im thinking 4 or 4.5mm thickness?

 

[RI Chevy]

4mm rope is pretty thick. 90cc saws use the 4mm.

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

3.5mm would be a typical replacement thickness.
