Here's a link to an article by LT Ray McCormak FDNY about working with an axe. Good stuff to remember.

As usual LT. McCormack is right on the money. I for one still consider an axe my primary roof vent tool and irons for forcible entry. Personally I am quite content to use it over a saw or rabbet tool anyday. As the LT so eloquently points out, the axe "always starts".
