I like the old ones too. 272 xp. Just recently got a 288 xp. I’ve got several more but the 2 series does it for me. I like them better than the 3 and 4 series.
Great saws!
I Would really like to get a 288, but they are hard to find up here...

I ran that 288 today for maybe the second time. I had the starter off previously. I never tightened the screws back up. I lost all 4 of them. Lol I’m pretty proud of that one. RI Chevy will like that.

Burned and oiled with care, not an axe, do not know the english word for this tool..

Very nice mattock beautiful handle
I use these a lot it’s a grubbing mattock for digging trenches or digging out tree stumps just flick it over and cut the roots it’s got a shorter digging head

The English cross and chisel mattock has a longer digging head and isn’t so fat around the pole of the head

There’s a draw prize that would have been good for this situation

Ox head I bought 30 years ago for log building. Wonderful piece of steel for shaving and scarf joints. Not for heavy duty chopping tho due to thin profile. I would handle the head a bit lower on the shoulder nowadays... didn't know that 30 years ago . I'd ditch the steel wedges also.
