I know that we all have different ideas about the knife and how many blades to put on. When spitting blocks the size of the double that is hanging, I like the tee so that I just split the bottom off as I go. If I have a lot of smaller wood I have welded onother verticle on top of it a couple of times, but mostly this setup works for me. Best part of the tee is that when splitting wood that is hairy-stringy, once it splits I lift the block away lower the block and push it through again behind the two left in the knife. I like that kind of wood, when dried the kindling is already on the split wood.

Wow, that's a nice design. Quite clever really. I especially like the idea of lowering the log slowly and chopping off the bottom.
