Going to let my video speak for me
great example ... and as many said before ... you don'thave to find a huge hard gnarly tree and try to chop through it ... but finding the right sized wood (which by the way a good folding saw can be your best friend to do this) ...
but splitting wood for tinder and up to mid sized logs isn't really even that hard on a knife unless you go crazy ... if your get experience batoning and processing wood with a knife ... it almost seems silly not to ...
in my first post I said I have generally carried an axe and still do sometimes ... but even using an axe and I am experienced with an axe ...
I still always have used a knife to split smaller wood for tinder and if the wood is wet I use a knife to strip the outter wood away for dry fuel ... batoning a knife is more controlable and safer than swinging an axe for these tasks.
