Box elder??? You have to be kidding. This is a very soft and light wood and it cuts easier than pine.

The hardest without any doubt is (green) black locust. My splitting maul would bounce off the log with barely a dent. I had to buy a hydraulic splitter to handle it. The good part is that it is the hottest and longest burning wood that I have - but it can be difficult to start.
