A neighbor and i bought a fixer upper splitter. It needed a new motor. For 500 bucks we are good to go. A spliter is something that isn't used all the time. If you have all your work lined up you could rent one for a weekend and save a bunch of cash in the short term.
Prior to that i used a Fiskars x27 splitting axe. I still use it all the time on stuff that is easy to split. I would recommend picking one up. It takes the place of a maul on most occasions. It is a serious axe that gets great velocity, easy to use, no handle vibration and sharp as a knife. All my neighbors either borrow mine or have bought one.
