if you are just burning do not take the time bark burns good.
the tool used for debarking logs is a slick it looks like a huge chizzle with a
handel that is 3 foot long or so.
the blade is about 4 inches wide and 8 to ten long.
the bevel is very long at a light slope and tool head is around 3/8 inches
thick lots of waight so wen you push it under bark the waight gives you a
little anersha
as for black walnut I wont all the notty ones to turn
and for what they say about fire wood it "heates you several times:once wen cut
once wen split and one more time wen you carey and stack and every one wen you
burn it."
Cordially,
