For splitting, I have two beater axes. A 3.5lb Vietnam made axe and a 4.5lb Husky. I am searching for vintage replacements for both. I am looking at heavy HB’s, Connies, Maine wedges and Jerseys. No hurry. I’ll get quality tools with some perseverance.
I will need a maul when I get to those thick rounds that are soon to be coming off those trees, but so far the Husky has been able to split anything up to roughly 20” across with some effort and turning.
You might enjoy a 4-5lb rafting pattern.
