Boom kindalin

[@svenross4236]

hahahahahaha

[@cloutgamer9683]

I love people who make life so much more easier like taras

[@bqwebed]

Ok, I’ve been splitting wood for a long time but this is the first I’ve seen this. Pretty amazed no...and safer!

[@chadprentice4239]

Wish I'd seen this about three years ago...cut top of my thumb off holding the wood. Great video

[@jbonexc1725]

I did the same to my index finger 2 weeks ago!!! Lesson learnt!

[@kelvinthecloud5620]

Just cut a section of my palm open it will heal but lesson learned

[@notquiteultralight1701]

Ouch

[@cdawson198600]

I’ve never seen it done this way, it looks like you have more control of where it splits and it’s much safer if you’re far from any medical assistance.

[@hans_____]

I didn't even know I've been splitting kindling with a hatchet at all!

[@sadnannafis1943]

Boom kindlelified!

[@fingolfin9086]

It’s been four years mate, get with the program.

[@gristlevonraben]

this is really good advice, thank you.

[@owenleblanc5501]

Jason Genova Tara’s is awesome he is the only youruber that didn’t change himself after fame

[@kgdeleon1954]

Jason Genova you forgot the "BOOM!".

[@davestock]

Thank you! I own a hatchet and have been doing the top-down technique with freestanding wood pieces but this way is so much better! 👍

[@topfin8441]

Crazy Russian hatchet.

[@GraceEagle5]

You are brilliant, dude! Very gifted in the use of your hands. Thanks for sharing!

[@Beechnutlk]

one of the best, most practical videos I have seen. Thank you so much

[@stylerweiland]

Another great video by the “crazy Russian hacker“. Love to hear that classic “boom“! Thanks brother.

[@judyofthewoods]

I've been splitting kindling from the side for a long time, but usually just whack it. Easier to miss sometimes, and the kindling tends to fly all over the place. This method looks a lot better. Aim first, then boom.

[@sallyk9]

Thank you for your helpful advice.

[@adammoorby99]

Always got to Watch a Video from Taras before bed

[@cowboyup545]

Very informative and helpful. Thanks You, Sir

[@KrumTats]

Taras, Enjoyed the video but I thought I wouldn't have a use for this technique. Today I was making carrot strips and tried it on the carrot. Works great!!!

[@maryannepowers1341]

Exactly what I was looking for. Great lesson

[@The90smyth]

I haven't been splitting anything with a hatchet ever!!!

[@jgbcodemonkey]

What a great technique! Thanks for sharing.

[@therealrealshocker]

Thank you for sharing! I like this method 👍

[@MoneylessWorld]

I'm just starting BC, went out and tried it, pumping out them kindling from the first try!
Thank you brother 💪

[@RestWithin]

You can do the same by just offering the axe head to the raw end of the log and gently tap the log and axe together downwards.

[@Jonnhy0989]

Looks awesome. I'm gonna try. Thanks for sharing.

[@WarGrrl3]

Excellent technique, thank you

[@bronzeowl9]

Amazing. This chopping novice appreciates this safer tutorial :)

[@dhanlakshmiparmar9405]

H̵̜̕ā̵̱c̵̩͛ķ̸̛e̸̖͛r̵̡̿ *Yeah* *you* *are* *right*

[@ourlifeinwyoming4654]

Thank YOU!

[@HauptwerkHardware]

Nice tip. Just moved to new place with wood burner so good that you helped me before I cut off any fingers :-) Thank you.

[@fri3nds652]

taras there is another way, u put the hatchet to the top of log and hold both and hit the log in the wood but just a bit so the hachet is stuck and then u can just swing it (it gives more accuracy f size)

[@1sovepose]

Kul were did you buy your sweater ?

[@valentinjud2150]

[@danielmoreno9935]

Where did you get those gloves?

[@coin9818]

This is a way better way that I used to do it, actually glad I saw this video

[@roderickconstantino5354]

You make it look way easier than it actually is

[@JaFo1992]

[@andrewcarlos8383]

[@yourdudethebrown]

I use tongs and split it five times with a few quick strikes, will give this a go too

[@kgdeleon1954]

"BOOM"-Taras Kul.

[@motnosniv]

Oh, I was trying trying to split kindling with a piece of cheese. Now I know why it wasn't working. Thanks bro.

[@AndriusUrbaitis]

This is a good tip. Taras is a pretty Kul guy

[@chickenbutt1800]

Taras you should do diss track on other hacker's videos. 😂

[@mattyrhea1314]

What kind of gloves are those?

[@peterfleming4967]

Awesome - without knowing it you've probably saved my fingers!!

[@canadianloon6433]

Boom that's awesome
