Hi all,
I'm looking for some advice on axe's.
I want a large axe or maul for splitting wood for our wood burner, it will be used on a variety of wood but I am based in the UK with regards tree species.
I also want a smaller axe/hatchet for roughing up kindling and smaller firewood.
So....am I better with a large axe or a maul and can anyone recommend me some examples (both large axe/maul and smaller axe/hatchet)?
I have seen from searching the forums that Fiskars and Gransfors Bruks seem well regarded but there appears to be a lot of different models out there?
I was looking at the Fiskars Super Splitter (4 1/2 pound head) and 14" Hatchet and also the Gransfors Bruks Wildlife hatchet and the Splitting Maul. Am leaning towards Fiskars as they seem more reasonable in price.
Many thanks,
Scott.
