It wasn't about felling it was hitting a healthy oak tree with a sledge hammer to damage the bark at the base to promote rot cavaties etc

Thats a birch not a pine If it was my garden i'd try coppicing (cut down at stump) it it might well die as unsure about how a tree than size and species responds But if it doesn't and regrows you'd get a multi stem tree like the hazel next to it .

A mains corded saw for firewood at home is good. Cheap to buy and cheap to run less noise & no fumes V petrol lasts for decades versus batteries that evetually degrade esp if crosscutting firwood alot as that would use up batteries rapidily thus alot of recharge cycles.
