Lifting smaller rounds onto the hyd splitter is definitely different exercise than hand splitting huge ones on the ground 😆

Larger file creates less hook and more durable angles, slower cutting. Larger file works better on a new cutter…smaller diameter as the cutter is used up and gets lower. I have some 1/4” files that I ground a flat side on that rides in the bottom of the gullet to maintain height…copy of stihl...

I don’t climb but I’d echo these guys to look at technique.

Climb with them in the tree.
