Heres another 461 i bought.
Its the newest one I own.
2018 saw.
I bought it for £350 off some guy in South East England.
Stock air filter, blunt chain, warped bar with massive burrs on the rails.
Something tells me it had never ever been cleaned or sharpened since the day it was bought.

Stihl 056 Magnums cutting green/live trees have a steel mesh for a filter. Dry and dusty conditions they have a whole different filter material. What they call it is evading me at the moment. (some timers I guess)
An edit to my own post. The word I was looking for is "FROCKED. I BE FRUCKED if I could remember that word.
