Milkiwai 12" Top-Handle Gas Chainsaw — 25.4cc 2-Stroke, 1.6 HP Lightweight Pruning Saw

The Milkiwai 12-inch top-handle gas chainsaw is a lightweight, 25.4cc two-stroke petrol saw designed for fast, one-handed tree pruning, limb trimming, and portable wood cutting.

This compact chainsaw combines high-revving performance with an ergonomic top-handle layout so hobbyists, arborists, and property owners can manage branches and small trees without the bulk of a full-sized saw. With a 1.6 hp motor, high-temperature quenched chain, and a 12" guide bar, the tool is built to deliver rapid cutting while remaining easy to carry and start.

How powerful and fast is the Milkiwai top-handle chainsaw?

The saw uses a 25.4cc two-stroke engine producing about 1.6 horsepower and up to 1.2 kW of power, spinning the chain at high RPM for efficient cuts. The chain is heat-treated for enhanced edge retention and the unit reaches chain speeds suitable for pruning and firewood preparation.

• Engine: 25.4cc two-stroke, ~1.6 hp output
• Max power: ~1.2 kW

How easy is it to carry, hold, and operate during a job?

Weighing about 8.2 lbs and fitted with a 12" guide bar, this chainsaw is compact enough to be handled with one hand for short bursts, reducing operator fatigue. The wrap-around top handle is cushioned for comfort and the built-in steel bar springs reduce starting effort, making it accessible for users who need a lighter, more maneuverable saw.
