 This is an interesting thread, was surprised at some of the different ratings. Never knew that birch was so high up there, I have been ignoring quite a few large birches that will be treated differently after this read.

Yah, good stuff, hard on saws though. I did see a chart at an auction that listed it and under comments it said " cut and split green or forget it".
