We’ve designed our 3-point felling dogs with functionality in mind. The middle spike falls directly in line with the chain kerf. This allows for a smoother cut and great articulation, especially when bucking or lining up face cuts. Customers may lose up to an inch of bar length with some of the 3-points. Insider tip – the 3-point 462 felling dogs (100-0217) are a replica of the 066/660/661/500i/044/064/440/441 felling dogs (100-0206) – just slightly smaller. Recommend these to customers who want a smaller-scale version of 100-0206.
