Default Chainsaw Chains

I have two chainsaws, a Stihl and a Craftsman. The Stihl has a hole in each drive link while the Craftsman doesn't. Since the Craftsman doesn't need holes but the Stihl does, am I right in assuming that the Stihl chains can be used on the Craftsman but not conversely?

You need to check the spacing on the driven edge of the chains. The chain has to fit the sprockets on the clutch and the tip.
