I try to keep several of these around and my last one died a bit prematurely so I need some more. I have some woods I prefer for these, but they're not on hand and I cut a black cherry down recently so I figured I'd try it out. This chunk is well over 4" in diameter. I went with a knotty section that otherwise would be firewood. Hatchet only. Already back riving some fencing from white oak.
