As someone with an electric chainsaw gas is still magnitudes most powerful. This sword would be cool and would cut but it wouldn't be like butter. You'd have to go relatively slow to avoid excessive friction binding the blade.

By the time you get your gas chainsaw started in spring, I'll be six trees ahead of you.

I have an electric chainsaw. Fuck gas. For what I need one for battery is perfectly fine

Yeah but imagine a gas chainsaw sized electric one. That would cut like the wood was butter.

Nah, it wouldn’t.

If you go slow yes. But speaking from experience my dewalt 16" struggles going through a 6*6 unless you go slowly.
