question LeatherDog, big chopper or axe? and why? cons and pros of both. I'm debating this myself and want to hear what others think (and gives you reason to post <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> )

Since I'm more of a knife guy I prefer a big chopper. Its just a more flexible tool. You can chop the firewood, split it, and prep the food all with one tool. And it makes a servicable spatula/turner in a fix.
