I just use a file. It seems if you are cutting a lot you need to touch it up about every other tankfull, more often in certain kinds of wood, even more often if you are doing barn renovations (although you don't do these with a new chain). It takes about 5 min if you have a vise, and seems to cut well for me. You can still take a lot off a chain in a short time with a file.
