- Quick video when I was out bush cutting firewood.
Thought it may be informative to some and help you with unnecessary strikes of the axe.
Love the Stihl AX28CS splitter axe, it works really well for me.
Enjoy and happy splitting!

Just how my Pop showed me 50 odd years ago. Great to see, bloody nice log👍
Well I learnt something new, I was only taught to cut straight across from the cracks to split logs in big chunks, this will definitely be handy for me 👍
Great to hear mate, hope it helps. Cheers
Fantastic video! I have that same axe and its brilliant
Cheers mate, thanks for you comment. Yes they're a great Axe!
For me its very well weighted and suits my swing.
OMG, this is a game changer !!!
Great work
Mate that was awesome, thank you.
No worries mate, thanks for the positive comment. Glad you enjoyed it 👍
You make it look so easy. I am trying to split firewood at home into pieces that will fit into the fireplace, but my axe just bounces off the wood! I have the same axe, brand new.
Thanks for your comment. Yes they are a awesome axe. Best tip I can't give for splitting stubborn or knotted timber is accuracy, getting your next strike to hit in the same spot. Cheers
Nice vid 👍
That’s a great looking log.
I see you tagged Fiskars in the description - how does that axe compare to like an X27?
I’ve tried lots of splitters & axes but can go longer with less effort with the Fiskars.
I’ve not tried the Stihl full size axe but do have the Stihl hatchet & its awesome 👌.

@@Party-Marty Thanks for your comment. Yes I have tried the AX27 and for me im more comfortable using the Stihl Axe as per this video, I find the handle length works really well for my swing style. Both are very good Axes👍
I may be able to do a comparison video soon. Cheers and thanks for watching/subscribing.
Any reason a tree like that wouldn’t be used for timber? It’s massive
Its in the state forrest public firewood area. You buy a permit but are only allowed to collect timber for firewood from dead fallen trees.
I do agree some is too good for firewood but thats all we can do..Cheers
@@lroutdoors9788 Ah I see. Such a waste for it to be burned but I guess it makes sense to not incentivise people cutting down trees too much.
