Not too bad - seems to hold an edge as well as most of my other knives.

How’s the steel in oxo knives?

I didn't hang around to find out.

I take it he likes fresh meat? 🍖

A little while ago I was eating something and had my sister's three dogs monitoring me very closely. A piece of food went down the wrong pipe and I started choking, and Owen started wagging his tail. I'm not sure I'll turn my back on him for a while.

50+ yesterday, 27 and windy now. After tomorrow, the extended forecast is looking very promising.

Things are blooming.

Don’t spoon whittlers and bowl turners kill each other for those?

Next step is to cut it to 16-18”, some of the logs will fall apart and no more splitting others will need a split or three. If I had an outdoor boiler it would be just cut to length. It works great! I have split several trees with it and fed the chipper the whole tree.

what are your next steps? cutting and more splitting? is that splitter working well? i thought about such an attachment to be able to chip junk wood with my smaller chipper.

I started breaking down logs with the Atom splitter.
