CHOPPING VS. SPLITTING<br />
WHICH TOOL FOR WHICH TASK<br />
Chopping axe – The Universal<br />
Chopping Axe’s thin, wide<br />
edge ensures a clean, easy cut<br />
in fresh, resinous wood, like<br />
spruce or pine.<br />
Picking the right tool<br />
for the job means<br />
less work for you and<br />
ensures that your<br />
plants heal faster.<br />
Splitting axe – The Splitting<br />
Axe features a unique cutting<br />
edge that easily slices into the<br />
wood, which the thick axe<br />
blade then pushes apart.<br />
Pruners work well for<br />
the smaller cutting jobs<br />

ANVIL VS. BYPASS<br />

Bypass: Both blade and counter<br />
blade press into the wood to<br />
make a clean cut with less<br />
compression damage (cutting<br />
blade <strong>by</strong>passes counter blade<br />
in a scissors-like action). Possible<br />
to cut close to the stem.<br />
Best suitable for fresh wood.<br />
Universal Cutters are<br />
ideal for those hard-toreach<br />
tree limbs<br />
Loppers are the best<br />
choice for larger stems<br />

Anvil: Upper blade is forced<br />
through the wood with greater<br />
pressure as the anvil blade supports<br />
the branch and spreads<br />
the pressure until the cut is<br />
complete.<br />
Best suitable for dry or dead<br />
wood.<br />
Saws are primarily<br />
used to prune branches<br />
of over Ø 50 mm<br />
Axes are for chopping<br />
thicker branches or<br />
splitting wood logs<br />
