Splits the right way too.

Really Nice.... I split both ways.. I don't discriminate.. LOL

No good. I'd have to pass on this simply because it would look silly and be very difficult splitting vertically with that thing.

Did anyone else get a chuckle out of that?

Don't get me wrong- I trust and have a few pieces of equipment with Honda engines

^^ Thought it was funny too.

I personally have a really hard time thinking about $1500 for a used splitter without even a log cradle, hydraulic lifter or anything that might make splitting big stuff horizontally. The whole point of a big motor, high tonnage and a 4 way wedge (to my mind) is to make fast short work of big, heavy, gnarly stuff. This splitter seems to have none of those nicities...though I do like the trailer grade wheels and tires.

Hmmm . . . as much as I like splitting horizontally (the right way) . . . I would not pay $1,500 for a splitter that cannot go vertical or at least has a good log lift since there are times that I do go vertical on on those wicked big splits . . . also $1,500 is pretty pricey for a used splitter . . . even one that was a lot more than that new.

Some day Jake might come to his senses..... Hey Jake, how much wood do you have stacked now?

Yep.

I'm not sure that I see $1500 worth of splitter there. Sure as heck not $2600.
