The only reason it broke is because you didn't hit it square.

Not always, you beat against wins it's not hard to bust one off.

I know it's not hard to break one. Done it plenty of times. It's usually a result of being in an awkward spot driving it with lots of force.

Very cool pictures!

With the size of the maul its easy to hit a little off center and snap it off. Thin wedges usually get it pretty quickly too. I've snapped off my share.

K and H for the win

The blue wedges from madsens can really take a beating kind of like a K&H. I know they are made by double taper but they seem tuffer then the "double taper" yellow and oranges.

The 10" douple taper is sweet for set back trees, I usually nip the ends off before they ever break, don't like their yellow ones though, K+H for everything else, though I think there is still one 14" scotsco floating around in the crummy, only use it in panic situations though.

The double tapers I always break off and if you have to stack them they are worthless.

I keep 2 of those 15" wedges around for beating or when I know I'm going to be jacking wood especially on stuff that's leaning back they have the best taper.

Another vote for K&H wedges. They seemed to hold up better than anything else.

Any one know of a Canadian supplier for k&h?
