I have a whole wood shed full of mauls and axes and they get used regularly, its great exercise.
Yup, Every now and then..

Been using this for the past 30 years. Quicker than a splitter and better exercise too.
No one can argue the "exercise value", using a maul.....
I usually sell between 20-30 cords per year, burn 2-4 myself, and split it all with a 6 lb. maul because...
- I could never justify the expense/hassle of a mechanical splitter with that amount of wood, especially at today's firewood prices.
- It would be slower for me to use one anyway.
- Using a maul gives me something easy to do for a workout and helps me stretch, stay flexible. The only thing that usually bothers me is my back when picking up the splits, but I'd be doing that with a splitter anyway.
- It's a tad easier to walk back into the woods with a maul than a splitter. Slightly.
- Chicks dig it
I have nothing against splitters. Some people just aren't physically capable, so they have their place.
