We had a nice warm day recently here in central Victoria and so I took my latest axe restoration project out for its maiden run.This vintage Kelly Dandenong is a 4lb head and was made by True Temper in Canada during the 1950s-1960s. The Canadian Kelly Dandees have fatter more convex profiles than the Australian or English ones and when I bought this a while ago I thought that it might make a good splitting axe.
I am working on using the "flick" technique for splitting our Aussie hardwood. So far I have found that it works best on straighter grained wood like this seasoned Grey Box. Still need more practise :)
