Practical advice about splitting wood.

Axes are neat, but when you really need to
do some mauling, I'd suggest, well,
a Maul.

Don't do go for the 12 lbser, it's just
too much weight to swing over
200 and sixty times.

It's a simple tool.  It's simple tool use.
It's simple, too. 

Axes need sharpening.
Better when they're just wedges.
