  • Haha it looks very effective, but I bet it takes a good bit of practice to get right. But looks like it is worth investing time in to learn.

  • That technique for splitting the logs on the block is interesting. Hitting it with a twisting action, I'll have to experiment with that next time I'm out camping.

  • @1jbunceiii Tip to tip my friend.

  • Is the axe measurement taken from tip to tip or end of the handle to the bottom of the axe head?

  • Thanks, I'm just now thinking about getting an ax for the forest. This will really help me get the proper one...

  • Tried it, it works... but only when the block has no knots, hehe...

  • Hitting yourself with the axe is something we must be aware of? Haha. I think we'd be aware of it.

  • @Axbent Touché, I know I spelled that right because i copied and pasted too lol ;D. but I don't know if it is the word I'm looking for but I think you know what I mean :P

  • @Ipodstufzz "Spelt (Triticum spelta) is a hexaploid species of wheat." I know I spelled this right cos I cut and pasted... ;)
