This unique hand held firewood splitting tool combines the "sledge and wedge" method of splitting wood all into one unit. Completely portable weighing only 12 pounds total, this tool is easy to hold yet packs a wallop!
A patented milled directional surface has been applied to the wedge faces, which keeps the tool moving into wet, green or super hard woods without bouncing out, ever! That's right- absolutely no bounce back or recoil making this one of the safest ways to split firewood. This hand held wood splitter has been proven for over twenty years to provide greater safety, less effort and more control than any other hand operated device under $100.00.
Engineered and built entirely in the U.S.A. Each part is individually machined and powder-coated for long use including a zinc electro-plated handle. Measures 55" Long.
I'm a 5'2, 105 lbs woman. With the wood splitter I can split a days' wood, including kindling, in less than 15 minutes. I love this product. It's easy to use and super effective.
We have now had our splitter for about 3 months. My husband used to split our wood with an ax, but we are getting older and he has had back problems, so we researched and bought this splitter. It can take several wacks to get a big log split, but there is really no wear and tear on our bodies. Also, I am able to do some of the splitting, which I could not do with an ax. It is quite heavy and appears well made. We are counting on it to last well. All in all, I wish we had bought it a few years ago and used it instead of the ax.
I have had this splitter for 5 years and it is great. I use it to split my wood for small starter pieces. I purchase split wood but always need starter pieces. I use a big whole log to set my wood to be split so that I do not dull the blade. It splits just like it is new after all these years.
Great product. I'm sure no self-respecting lumberjack would use this but it's great for those of us who value our toes. It takes some getting used to as there is some technique to it but it worked very in the end. It has a nice dampener spring built into the wedge so that the shock from dropping the weight doesn't reverberate up the handle to your hand. A nice feature. One negative... it's quite loud when the weight hits the wedge metal on metal to the point of being almost painful to the ears. I wore noise canceling headphones to complete the nerd look when using this device. Enjoy.
This splitter is great especially if you have neck, shoulders and back pain. It's so easy and there is no discomfort at all.
