Axe or maul?

got myself a friskars x27, bit pricey but they looked very good on reviews!

Where did you get yours from Ryan, was it from Amazon.com before they changed their minds and decided not to ship overseas?!!!

I think if you don't know the answer already no offence !! Buy a cheap 1 of both as chances are by the time you have got used to swinging and hitting a log every time you would of smashed the axe shaft to bits!!! Not good on a £90 axe.

Personally I like cleaving hammers , Best of both worlds..width and weight of a maul with almost the profile of an axe but slightly shorter shaft usually.

my maul cost £20 and splits logs brilliantly. always get the wooden handled ones - support our own industry!

Ordered of amazon last night! I have used both before of a mates, just wondered the popular opinion of which is better.

I'd buy a fiskars x27 but I refuse to pay almost double what our american cousins pay for it!!!!
