        I have found a source for some 5″ diameter Moso bamboo and am wondering what type of bamboo splitter would be most suitable for poles this size?

        Thanks

          I’m no expert, but since no one else has responded…

          I’ve split a bunch using just an old machete and a mallet. Put the machete on top of the colm where you want it and begin tapping with the mallet. It’ll split real nice.
