I've put some hard miles on mu chainsaw and it won't start for me any more. That's why I'm considering making the switch to an axe for all of my tree felling needs.

Your wife must call the Life Insurance Agent daily to make sure the premiums are paid up.

I've known Tall Midget for a while.

Not sure what you mean.

I have operated a chainsaw just fine for a number of years.

I was injured by a chainsaw-wielding cretin who ostensibly had more expertise than I did with the tool but didn't actually know what he was doing.

My wife is completely oblivious to the fact that I have continued to use a chainsaw on a regular basis.

Wow, not many lumberjacks here. Invest in a quality chainsaw, cheap one will break or have ongoing chain issues, so get a Stihl or something equivalent.

Maul axe and cutting axe are two different animals, maul will be much heavier for splitting logs, the one you use to cut down the tree will be lighter, switched over to fiberblass recently after breaking numerous wood handles, but use the chainsaw to cut down the tree and cutting to remove branches.

There is of course the entire how to do the backcut and safely cut down a tree thing, you can get yourself into trouble quickly if you do not know what you are doing, but if you do your backcut right the tree should fall exactly where you want it to fall.
