Your K1 is a Carlton chain but there are many models.

The 33 Oregon chain is a safety low kickback chain. The chain is no longer made. A friend of mine spent a day at the Blount plant in Ontario where they make much of the Oregon chain. They said that 33 type  chain was terrible at clearing chips and was slow.

The LPX that Kevin referred to is a pro type chain and cuts much faster but has no safety bumper links.
