You gonna have to cut a shedload of those wedges to split any quantity and it looks like a kot of hard work. But I guess if you're stuck outside with only a small axe...
Yeah thats the point. If you have a large volume to split then get a maul, axe and proper splitting wedges. But in a pinch you can split some pretty large and knarly logs with just a hatchet
No thanks im not getting hit in the face buy the business end of an axe, Ill just use the cut log of wood to wack the axe in or better yet, use a mallet
Ben, you are a legendary axe man

I love doing that “trick” when camping with my family. It’s like magic to them and they watch in disbelief.
Nice !
Good stuff, go the Stihl hatchet! Beasty little axe
Its actually a vintage 3lb east german head, same rhineland pattern stihl sells though
@@benscottwoodchopperaha! I thought the toe was a bit smaller! 3lb Rhineland, sweet!
Great demonstration on a gnarly log...almost more entertaining than the comments section!🤣
How many grams is your sthil axe / hatchet ??
Wedge done :D
Ah the lowely wedge,, the fundamental tool.
will this affect the eye of the axe?
Ive never seen or hear of an axe eye being damaged by driving wood wedges, hitting 2 axes or with a steel hammer is damaging though
Stihl Woodcutter?

Hmm do you hit yourself in the face with a claw hammer when driving nails too? Sounds like a skill issue to me
