Designed for splitting chunks of wood, "rounds". The axe head is quite heavy with forged cheeks on both sides of the blade, "splitting wedge shaped crests" which power apart the grain of the wood. A Splitting Axe does not just have to slice into the wood - the thick axe blade pushes the wood apart.
