The cleft graft is another old method that does work, but bark grafting is better and easier.
However, at least in my limited experience, mulberries have worked better as cleft grafts than any other method I've tried on 'em. Additionally, I've been unable to get reasonable 'bark slip' on hawthorn seedlings, and have HAD to use cleft grafts to work mayhaw scions on the the native C.crus-galli seedlings I use as understock for those.
