About Chainsaws FAQ
What's the difference between chipper and chisel chain?
Madsen's says a "chipper is a round tooth, round filed chain. It maintains it's edge better in dirty cutting. Chisel is a square tooth, either ground round or square from the factory. The fastest cutting chisel is the square grind. It is also the hardest to maintain unless you use a chisel grinder. The chisel tooth is more efficient because the square edged tooth severs the wood fibers better than a round tooth."
