Every chainsaw we have on file, 301 of them, from 10 cm one-handed pruners to 90 cm milling saws. Each one lists the specification as the manufacturer gives it, and a current buy link where the model is still sold.
The quickest way in is to decide one thing first: how thick is the wood you actually cut. Add about 5 cm to that and you have your bar length. Then pick the power source to suit where you cut.

Bar length decides what the saw cuts in one pass, so it is the first number to fix.
Petrol runs as long as you keep mixing fuel and is the only realistic choice above a 40 cm bar. Cordless starts instantly, makes a fraction of the noise and now handles real firewood on the larger platforms. Corded gives the most cutting power per pound spent, as long as the work happens near a socket. Electric covers both mains and battery in one listing.
If you would rather start from the work than the machine: cutting firewood, branches and small trees, one saw for everything or professional use.

Specifications come from the manufacturer or the retailer listing, not from our own measurements, and we say so plainly rather than pretending otherwise. Where a model has been discontinued, the page keeps the specification for anyone researching a saw they already own and points at a current equivalent instead of a dead buy link.
Buy links are affiliate links where the model is sold on Amazon. Several brands, Stihl most notably, sell only through approved dealers in the UK, and those pages say so rather than sending you somewhere that will not have the saw.
