Technique for Manual Log Splitting (Fiskars Hand Axe)

What happens here

The Fiskars hand axe, specifically a splitting maul, is designed for efficient manual log splitting. Its lightweight, hollow handle provides better balance and reduces fatigue, while its wide-wedge head helps drive through logs effectively. To split a log, place it upright on a sturdy chopping block. Position the axe head on the center of the log and use a powerful, controlled swing to split the wood. This particular axe comes with a lifetime warranty, covering breakage as long as it's not due to hammering or prying.

Goal: Demonstrate effective manual log splitting using a Fiskars hand axe.
