Here's why you have a sacrificial old bar and chain for your saw when cutting yard trees. Didn't hit it, but knew there was metal in there; just didn't expect to find this much when splitting it! #firewood #chainsaw

I use to do the same thing. Often cutting those pieces quite long and cringing the whole time. All while hoping I'd guessed on a "good" spot to miss any surprises.

That piece would really ruin ones day...
