Splitting Osage

Here's a quick few photo's for Colin showing the splitting of an osage stave. As you'll notice Im splitting 'against' the growth rings so to speak and regardless of this it still splits like a dream.
When you split it 'with' the rings it splits just as nicely Axe .... just take your time when pushing the knife down the stave
