I've answered a fire call where someone mis-judged it, and split his foot lengthwise, in a logging boot.

@TS175 It's called a KEECH racing Axe. It's made specifically for wood cutting competitions. Like a lumberjack sport. The same way special bows are made for olympic archery,and special guns for speed shooting. A racing Axe is far more expensive than a normal one,and it's blade is planed to bite as deep as possible into the wood and it's shaving sharp. They are hand made axes. Pretty much the best wood cutting axe you can buy.

First log is oak. Then it goes back and forth from yellow poplar and aspen.
