MANIOSHIYA Firewood Kindling Splitter with Enlarged Openning & 3LBS Solid Sledge Hammer, Manual Kindling Splitting Wedge, Sturdy Portable Firewood Cutter, Splits Firewood Safely and Easily, Size:Small

I really like this. I have an indoor fireplace, and I use this to split my kindling from already quartered logs. It beats using my hatchet and fingers close by while I try to hit the mark.For kindling, this thing is absolutely perfect. For camping, this thing is amazing. I take my Dewalt battery chainsaw and this splitter, and no more dragging full logs onto the campfire. Cut, split and done.

Well, I moved up here in the mountains 18 years ago and splitting wood was the hardest thing of everything I had to do. Wish I would’ve had this back then! But thankful I have it now everybody likes doing it. It’s fun if you can believe that.

You get what you pay for and this isn't worth $20. Not sturdy at all. The blade to split the wood wasn't very sharp and the wood, while being split, starting bending the metal ring down. Returned item

I mounted mine to a 2x12 cut to size. didn't have a 18in diameter log.

Work really good. Splits small pieces easily. Brother loves it

In the origin of the product it states the USA but product comes from China . The welded design doesn't feel very robust so I'm concerned about its durability. It splits smaller very dry wood with less effort but you have to work to try to split larger logs. If you use logs shorter than 12 inches the wood doesn't bind at the bottom. If it doesn't completely split you will have to force it off the splitter. You should make sure to wear gloves to avoid splinters.

Split wood for my Smoker.

My 6 year old grandson was able to split 8 inch logs.

This splitter and the supplied sledge made short work of my recently purchased firewood. The large opening accommodates my large pieces. I nad no problem splitting maple, oak and elm. Softwood for kindling was even easier. I’m very pleased with my purchase
