"On a green maple log (same day) 9ft long, 21 inches at one end, 15x17 on the other this tool would grip the log if spiked into the bark with a firm jab on the small end, in the middle even a voilent jab would rip out 50% of the time. Forget it on the big end. The tool is just not large enough to surround the log and hold the pin in place. I plan to purchase another tool for the larger logs."

"I got a delivery of 18 foot timbers ranging in diameter fro 8 inches to 30 inches. Going it alone I needed help so I ordered the Cant Hook. It handled whatever I could muscle. It along with the Timberjack helped me cut over 3 cords of timber. They are now on loaner to a friend who burns."

"Very good product. The handle is extremely strong, and quite durable. The hook seems very durable too, taken as a whole I think this will provide years of service. The only drawback I can see, the hook is kind of dull, so it can be hard to set into logs with a tough bark."

"After our property had been cleared for our new home the contractor saved me a pile of the best trees for firewood.I didn't have a Cant Hook and the neighbor volunteered his Columbus McKinnon.After using it I hated to give it back,but felt I might need it again.Now I have my own and would only borrow if I need the second one.Having 10.5 wooded acres I'm positive this one will get a work out.Another great reason for picking CM over all the others is its Lifetime warranty.The hickory is strong,but then you never know."
