I just want to say thanks for the video. I want to buy or make a pickaroon and I've been researching all the different head styles to see if they work on hardwood and if they are truly effective. I've searched all over KZread for a video that showed exactly what you demonstrate with the pickaroon - how effective it is and a timestamp with real world logs. Mostly, what other Tubers show is a guy holding it, showing it off, he'll stab it into a soft wood pine/fir log, move the log about a foot and drop it. That's no help, really. Anyway, thanks.
