Review: A Beast of a Saw – Perfect for Firewood Business The Husqvarna 460 Rancher has truly exceeded my expectations. It’s powerful, smooth, and incredibly reliable — everything you want in a workhorse saw. As someone who runs a firewood business, this has become my primary saw, and it’s more than proven itself. Before writing this review, I’ve put it through its paces, processing at least six full cords of wood — and it hasn’t skipped a beat. The performance is consistent, the cuts are clean, and it handles larger logs with ease. I swapped out the standard 24” bar for a 28” bar, and the added reach has made a big difference when working with oversized rounds. Whether you’re in the business or just need a serious tool for heavy-duty cutting, the 460 Rancher is a top-tier choice. I absolutely love this saw and can confidently recommend it to anyone who needs power, performance, and durability in one rugged package.
Review: If you want a saw that runs, cuts well, easy to start you can't go wrong. I own nine saws over 20 years and all run great.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the thickness of the chain?**
A: Makes about 1/4 inch slice when cutting fire logs

**Q: Does this saw support any other size bars? Such as 18, 20,28 or is it specific to the 24 inch only?**
A: You can change bar length as long as you stay with 3/8 x 0.050 chain size. I purchased an Oregon 16 inch bar for my saw for most cutting around my property. You can go to a bigger bar but you sacrifice power. Your call

**Q: Is there any way to get the military discount purchasing through this store, or do you have to go to a retail location?**
A: Some business sites have that built in but Amazon is not one of those.  Would be great if they were.  Home Depot offers a 10 percent discount for military and so does Lowes

**Q: If this model overkill for home use and for one tree?**
A: Depends on the tree. Most "homeowner" chainsaws have 18-inch chains or smaller. This chainsaw has a 24-inch bar. If you have never used a chainsaw, I would not recommend it for home use on one tree. Also, I highly recommend getting a forestry helmet and, if new to chainsaws, a pair of kevlar chaps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by E***R on 21 December 2025*

This worked great, I have minimal experience with chainsaws, I owned an entry level one before. I was able to cut down trees with 12” trunks with no problem. I can’t believe how much easier it was compared to my old chain saw. I would highly recommend this chain saw, don’t bother with smaller or cheaper ones.
