Good splitting axe

[davey_b]

Right that's it, getting the GB maul. Had to cancel my credit card this week but when my new one comes through this will be my first purchase.

 

Thanks for all your help guys.

Can't seem to see the Fiskars super splitter from Westfalia. Can you post a link if you can find it.

Mmm,just checked Westfalia's website,cant seem to find it.....im wondering if they stopped doing them as they seem to have a new range of mauls/splitters

I use a silverline firbeglass handle splitting maul most of the time, as I tend to be burning ugly knotty bits of wood

 

I also have an old felling axe to use on the easy stuff, but think I could do with buying a new one as the head has a crack running down it and the handle is fairly battered

I use a 6lb Roughneck fibre glass handled axe about £15 from memory and lasted years, had a rough neck splitting maul too til it lost its head and the new one I bought is so bad it would probably split quicker using the hammer head side

I bought one of those Aldi £9.99 maul jobbies- seems okay but not as good as my Bahco one.

 

Don't forget to get a sledge hammer to go with the maul. You'll need it to finish the job sometimes!! And maybe a good steel wedge or two for those really awkward barstewards.....
