New sawchain design has come and gone over the decades.
Here's a interesting one from January 1970 issue of Chainsaw Age magazine.
Looks quite revolutionary but this was the only ad of this chain as it and its company disappeared from the face of the earth forever.

With some research this chain was originally built by a couple of partners who set up a chain plant in the late 1960's near Victoria B.C. Canada but they  quickly went out of business and sold the plant to Windsor.
They moved to California with different partners and design then took a another stab at it.
Maybe someone bought them and the patent out?

Husky had a contest on their Facebook page For this new Swedish made X-cut Chain, And I was just notified that I was one of the lucky winners! .

I won the .325” variety but I am going to try to get my hands on some of the C-85 3/8” as well. When I get it I’ll take some photos, and do some testing.

I asked for a 66 DL or 72 DL in .325” & a 72 or 93 DL in the C-85 (3/8 version). Told them I'd be willing to purchase the latter. They haven't yet responded. Didn't get the notification until late Friday, so I hope to get a response Monday.

Maybe I can send them a message about getting a 24" loop. Some guys are wanting to do a chain race this spring/summer
