Abstract
Embodiments herein provide a dresser link for a saw chain that is configured to condition a sharpening element. The dresser link may include a conditioning element with an outer edge that is offset from an outer side of the dresser link. The conditioning element may include a horizontal relief angle and/or a vertical relief angle. The saw chain may further include a cutter link having a cutting element. The horizontal and/or vertical relief angle may facilitate maintenance of a clearance between the cutting element and the conditioning element after wear of the cutting element and conditioning element.
