We did something similar to what you described in an old post of yours Bill. Only with a hatchet, a Leatherman, and a rock to fix a busted winch on a mired ATV up in the Northwoods this summer. i like the way you think. Wanna know where i got the idea?

We take the double bit axe and stick the sharp side hard in the stump. Two men are best used for this job. One holds the cable over the axe and the other hits it with a big hammer on top, Lay the cable over the exposed edge of the axe where you want to cut it, hold on AND LOOK DOWN!

Found this gem (and that delightful thread:Redneck Engineering) the first day i joined this site.
I enjoy your posts Sir, and look forward to many more.
PS: you may have a PM inbound soon pertaining to a few blade craft questions and a project i would like to start. I need to do a little more homework first to have an informed set of questions for you.
