That is a different looking eye.
It's smaller, shaped different, bigger radius. You have to take a lot off to get it in, then spread it a whole lot to snug it up. First time I took too much off and couldn't spread it enough to snug against the big radius. A round wedge would probably work better. I could've been more patient shaping it too.

I like the looks of the council 5 lb splitting axe. What's your opinion of it?
Good wedge banger

Gets stuck as a splitter. You want double convex Ala BBR wood bullet or like that weco maul. Flat cheeks on the bit grip and get stuck in the wood
