  1. Thank you for that Goaty. Yes the Palax axe has two horizontal blades which are set back an inch ir two from the vertical blade and it looks as though I will have to try and make one myself with staggered blades. It must take less pressure to split the smaller pieces than the initial big piece, but of course there may be more of them depending on my design. The ram on the Palax is surprisingly powerful for its speed of operation and will crunch the occasional knotty bit of Ash with little effort.
  2. I have a Palax Combi 600 with a removable four way splitting axe. Has anyone made a replacement axe which would split to kindling size? Would such a device which might split a ten inch log into ten rather than four pieces need a lot more pressure from the splitting ram?
