Sharpening File
Are factory chain-saw blades junk or is it me?

I bought a Husqvarna 455 Rancher and I love it as a first chainsaw. I notice though, that the blade gets dull after a good amount of sawing. I purchase a file with a guide to resharpen, and have successfully sharpened it a few times. It seems to dull quicker than I would like. Do you think I am not sharpening it enough, or are factory chains junk? Thanks for answering.

Depending on the wood your cutting all Chain Saw blades dull fast. In an 8 hour day your going to sharpen it at least once.
