Default Re: I have an axe to grind...

I've used splitting mauls for years and never sharpened them. Thousands of split logs...oak, maple, birch, olive, pine....

Yes, I sharpen an axe or hatchet, but don't think I've ever sharpened a maul for primary log splitting. I actually think a blunt maul works better than a sharp point which tends to stick more.

30 years, 8 chain saws, too many cords to count! As usual, your mileage may vary.
