Stihl

Orange chainsaw brand

Stihl is a German manufacturer of chainsaws and other outdoor power equipment, founded in 1926.

The brand is so dominant in the chainsaw market that Stihl has become nearly synonymous with professional-grade chainsaws, much as Kleenex stands for tissues.

He fired up the Stihl and got to work on the fallen oak.

The company also makes trimmers, blowers, and other landscaping tools favored by professionals and serious homeowners.
