surprisingly nice wood though. I have a stack of pallets and the wood

I have been slowly learning how to get them apart without splitting the
wood. Do you have any good techniques?

I have found cutting through nails and punching them out much easier
than trying to extract them whole or to prise the pieces apart, but I
have run out of old blunt hand saws to do the job with. They become
toothless and too blunt after a bit. Some people use a power saw - a
sabre saw? but I don't have one.
