Nice technique. This is a good example of why members should avoid wrapping the handle of the Haligan bar with tapes and wire/tubing/small diameter cord etc. to create a better grip. It would make it difficult to slide the second tool down the bar for striking. It also helps to take an angle grinder and square off the “shoulder” of the fork to create a small striking surface.
