Let the saw do all the work

You need horsepower and a 35 degree cutter with 30 thou deep rakers

Greetings 7mmSAUM,
The blue look and spiral nature of the bark suggests your tree may be one of the southern blue gums, quite common in Hawkes Bay. A lot of them are dogs to split. The smaller branches and logs on top of my heap are splitting easily at the moment but I am sure that more drastic means will be needed later.
Regards Grandpamac.
