Ludell 11604 4-Pound Heavy Duty Forged Steel Log Splitting Wedge Wood Splitter Tool for Firewood Camping Gardening

Maximum Splitting Force for Tough Hardwoods

Make quick work of your winter firewood stack with the Ludell 11604 4 lb. Log Splitting Wedge. Engineered for the outdoor enthusiast and professional gardener alike, this heavy-duty tool is crafted from premium drop-forged steel, heat-treated to withstand the immense impact of sledgehammers and mauls. Its substantial 4-pound weight provides the kinetic energy needed to drive deep into knotty pine, oak, and maple, forcing the wood apart with fewer strikes than lighter alternatives.

Designed for efficiency and safety, the wedge features a precision-honed cutting edge that bites easily into the log, holding its position for the driving strike. The tapered body expands the wood grain outward, effectively splitting large rounds that a standard axe simply bounces off of. Whether you are clearing a campsite, managing a property, or stocking up the wood stove for the season, the Ludell splitting wedge is the reliable companion you need for heavy-duty timber processing.

Specifications

Pro-Tip: To split extremely large or knotty rounds, do not rely on a single center strike. Instead, use the "pie slice" method: start your wedge near the outer edge of the log (parallel to a crack if visible) to peel off smaller sections first. This reduces the friction on the wedge and prevents it from getting stuck deep in the center of the log.
