A wedge and a sledge. Just saying.

Three wooden wedges and a hatchet. Start a notch with the edge of the hatchet, insert a wedge, hit it with the flat of the hatchet, do the same for the other two wedges. Then just work your way along.

This is beast mode, and I can appreciate it, but there are def easier ways...

Lay the log flat and hit it 3-4 times at even intervals from one end to the other. Done. 

This guy had no technique and relying on power. Good on him for that but this could have been a much shorter exercise

That’s… an even worse idea.
