So I have been stuck on this for a while. Please help me decide. I just moved to a rural house and will be chopping a lot of wood for an outside firepit and an indoor wood burning stove.
All I have right now is a boys axe. Should I get a 5lb axe and an 8lb maul or a 4lb axe, 6lb axe and a 8lb maul. I would not be getting them all right away but knowing the set I eventually want will help me with my immediate purchase or purchases. If those combinations are not doing it for you, what else would you recommend? Since I have a boys axe w/ a 2.25lb head, my choices would consist of 3.5lbs, 4lbs, 5lbs, 6lb axe, 6lb maul, or a 8lb maul.
I will probably stick with Dayton styled axes but let me know if you recommend something else. Think I just need 2 more size options, 3 more, etc?
I am 5'9" slender but in good shape. I live in the northeast and own a poulan chainsaw.
Thanks for any help. I really want to decide and get an order in so I can be to work!
