wedge. As the sharp edge of the ax strikes the wood, it applies a focused force on a small area, causing the wood fibers to separate and the wood to split along the grain. This demonstrates the mechanical advantage of the wedge as a simple machine used in splitting wood.
To effectively and safely use an ax, follow these steps: Choose the right ax for the job and make sure it is sharp. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the ax with both hands. Swing the ax in a controlled motion, aiming for the target area. Keep your body and hands clear of the swing path. Use proper technique to avoid injury and always wear protective gear.

The axe is a wedge, so it is a form of inclined plane.
Yes, an axe is a simple machine. The axehead is called a wedge, or two incline planes put together to make a sharp edge.
The difference is in the shape of the head of the ax.
Handle, head and edge are the parts of a hand ax.
