This is a covert operation. A neighbor has declared war upon me without provocation. I have tolerated his ridiculous backyard forestry long enough.

My intention is to use Tordon and reduce his idiot tree-line to a barren desert. I have been learning that I can use a "hack & squirt" method by creating a small cut to the bark and applying Tordon, a latter-day Agent Orange.

But it has to be quiet, so no hacking. I would like to know what is best knife to quietly score some trees.

I assume a simple hunting knife should be enough. But I thought I would consult the wisdom of the internet first.

Trees are worth a surprising amount, don't kill the trees and get sued

I know. Which is why its important not to get caught.

Ive already ruled out small ordnance and airstrikes with drones. Too much overhead and I wouldn't likely survive an investigation.

I have a dremel but I dont think rotary tools have the torque to really survive bark. I do have a cordless drill and half inch bit though.

A knife should work with young trees. Older ones might take more work.

I suppose I could use a small hatchet if I just chop slowly.

You are allowed to trim whatever vegetation is over your property line, dumbass. Just cut it back to his property and STFU with the cringey edgy shit.

You need to breed some Orcs first, Saruman didn't just walk into Fangorn Forest holding his dick.

What kind of area are you living in? Will removing a wood lot/tree line have any consequences for you in terms of wind, snow, erosion? It's pretty common for a city boy to move to the country, take down the tree line, and have his nice private backyard turn into a windblown siberian steppe.

Use a hatchet but instead of swinging it, use a rubber mallet to drive it in, should be quiet enough.

Use a hand drill. Use a funnel to get ij the poison. Close up the holes with some ground bark mixed with wood glue and sprinkle some dirt over it.

After reading the rest of your post I'm pretty sure there was provocation.
Being stupid is like being dead. You don't know you are but others around you do.

Wait for a rainy day, pour salt into the dirt around the tree. Just enough so that the rain will dissolve it and he won't notice. Repeat over a year or two.
