    Nice method for smaller dry logs. Although a maul and a chopping block work far better for thicker pieces and wood that isn't dry. Axes are truly meant for felling trees, but work for light duty chopping.

    So at my family cabin, we chop wood with a 10lb wood splitter and a 35ish pound sledge hammer. Made from an old car axle with a hammer top welded on top of it. We kept breaking our sledge hammers with a wood handle.... We are also splitting tree logs a bit larger that the ones you had so your technique wouldn't work for us. But for our smaller logs this would be perfect. Save us some energy this will. Thanks for the tip.

    This is a very good tip. I had two large wood logs left because they were odd shape and hard to split, and I kept delaying splitting them because I knew they were difficult to split. Finally I used the tip in this video in this afternoon to split those two pieces. The tip actually works -- still hard work though because the wood fiber are twisted -- at least I could split them. Thanks for the tip.

    @ 1:50 if that happens, you flip over the axe and hit the log with the back of the axe. The piece of wood stil stuck on the axe will then split itself because it is forced down on the axe with its own weight. The technique shown in this video works only with pieces that are long and thin and dont have to many side branches. So this hack is only partially worth considering.

Simply, go to the hardware store, buy a 'log-splitter' or a 'maul', ($10 bucks?), and get the job done in half the time without looking like a pussy.

    you are also using small pieces of wood. When you use much wider trees and bigger knottier chunks of wood, vertical with a maul and sometimes a wedge is how I do it. The way you swing the axe looks more exausting too and it looks pretty light, but that could be because I'm used to the mauls where you need the momentum.

    I also gave this method a try, and I am surprised by how effective it is. Plus, if you split straight through, on a block the ax can get wedged pretty good, but landing sideways in a horizontal log, it rarely got stuck. This method is especially effective on smaller logs, or second splits.

    +wildonemeister I split do firewood for a living. splitting 2-4 bush cord a day. this technique is good, however, hitting the log like that does damage to the wrists over a long period of time. I use this style but from the other side where I'm burying the axe into the dirt. it's good for anything up to 12" across. anything beyond 12" your best just to hit the holding wood ( the outer 3") normally 1-3 good swings will pop anything up to 30" across. anything past that I would drive a wedge into one side and use the axe on the direct opposite.

The math trying to figure out your funky measurements gave me a headache :P I might not have the best splitting maul, but my axe is top notch and I'd pick it over the maul any day. I personally split large pieces once or twice with my electric splitter and then use the axe on the rest to make things go faster. Can you sir answer me what kind of moisture content the US/Canada has as a minimum to sell the firewood? I've read 30% somewhere and in my part of the world it's 20% (which is of course way better in all aspects).

    After splitting millions of logs you learn to just climb the wood pile and just start chopping any piece close without handling it and using a lumber pick you can sort through the pile stabbing and throwing cut pieces with the pick as you go.

    I was thinking this too, I saw other videos and stuff of people holding it like you said and when I watched this I was thinking "Is that even the right way to hold it?" Because the way he uses it, it looks kind of weird
