    It's a maul, not an axe.

      As in:

      "Watch out! That dog'll maul you to death!"

      Seriously though, that is a splitting maul. A maul is just a mallet or hammer.

      Bingo.

      I know I know, I split my own firewood. But "splitting maul" wouldn't have been funny.

      I grant you that. I just wanted to keep the unwashed from learning the wrong thing (if they learned anything at all).
