>>524166Was that Canterbury's Bushcraft 101? Every time I hear people raging for or against. batoning I think back on that chapter and wonder just wtf people imagine it to be. It's a handy skill for starting a split in your firewood or splitting smaller (i.e. 3-4") diameter logs if you don't have a better too on hand, like a knife. Canterbury also said You should carry a few rubber or soft plastic wedges to finish the job.
