About this deal

You can take much of the hard work out of managing and maintaining your garden with the correct garden machinery. These include numerous compact tractor attachments which are designed to take full advantage of your compact tractors PTO power source.

If you’ve never used a grenade log splitter before, then the conical/diamond-shaped design will probably seem a little strange to you at first. However, its simplicity is its strength. This log splitter may be compact, but it’s made from heat-treated iron to give it long-lasting strength. It feels pretty heavy when you hold it, which gives it a high-quality feel. The Rolson log splitting wedge is very good for dealing with logs up to around 25cm in diameter, and can handle larger logs, however I found that controlling the direction of the wedge became a little harder when doing so. Then again this could have has something to do with the fact that I had to use a larger and heavier hammer for the larger logs too, so I had less finesse in my swing.The Swedish Log Splitter promises to take the effort out of log splitting yet doesn’t require electricity to run. Even better, it claims to be able to produce both split logs and kindling. My job was to find out how genuine these promises were. There’s no assembly required for this log splitter. However, you do have the option of screwing it onto a base log (screws aren’t provided) to hold the unit steadier while it’s in use. If you’re working with heavy wood, then I would recommend doing so. However, the price of this log splitter lets it down slightly. For a splitter intended for kindling, it’s a little expensive – if it were larger and versatile enough to split logs too, then fair enough. That said, there are also several aspects to this wood splitter that justify its price. It doesn’t require as much force to be used as some of the cheaper kindling splitters out there. The fact that it’s made from cast iron adds value too – not only will it last for decades without needing much maintenance, but it also looks good – you won’t need to hide it away in your garage each time you’re done using it. Assembly: I began by examining the assembly process of each log splitter. I noted the clarity of the instructions each manufacturer provided, the tools you needed, and the time it took to complete the assembly. Those which were particularly fiddly or that took a lot of time and patience were rated down. Log splitters where little or no assembly was required were given a high rating.

Sometime there are products advertised as splitting wedges when in actual fact they are felling wedges and not made for the same purpose. Felling wedges are usually made from weaker materials and will not withstand the same treatment as a splitting wedge. Material So, does this log splitter really require minimal force? Compared to the other manual splitters for kindling that I tested, with the exception of the Swedish Log Splitter, I would say yes, this one is the easiest to use. You don’t need to be particularly strong to use this tool, and you don’t need to own a hammer either – just place your wood into the ring and hit it with anything slightly weighty that you have to hand, even if this is just another piece of wood. A manual log splitter is best suited to small gardening jobs and creating domestic amounts of kindling and firewood. Use them on logs around 15 – 25 cm tall. Hydraulic Log Splitters Using this wood splitter is simple. You place your wood through the ring at the top, and then hold it steady while you tap it a couple of times with something weighty. This embeds it into the wedge. Then, hit it with a bit more strength a few times to push it down the wedge, and, as it moves down, it will split into smaller pieces of kindling.What was most impressive was how easy it was to use this log splitter. Simply dropping the weight down the pole a few times is all you really need to do to split most logs. Larger logs, as well as knottier logs, may require you to push the weight down the pole a little more forcefully, but the amount of effort needed really is minimal. convenient and space-saving】: our manual kindling splitter is designed to be mounted on a wall/wood with screws, saving you valuable floor space while keeping your tools organized and easily accessible. when you are not using it, you can easily fasten the manual firewood splitter with our customized iron ring to make it closed and not easily open, and store it in a ca... Safety: When testing the range of log splitters in our line-up, I had to take into account a wide variety of safety features. Some products were made so simple that they didn’t need any safety features, and these were ranked high as safety was still paramount to their design. For the electric hydraulic log splitter, I tested the effectiveness of its safety features, including its safety cage.

durable and stable:our firewood splitter adopts an integrated design structure, simple but stable, and it can be easily placed on any ground. with the bolt holes on the base, it can be fixed to a stump or other places. A manual log splitter is basically one step up from using an axe. They still require a certain amount of physical force for log splitting, although this does depend somewhat on the design that you go with. Minimal effort tends to be needed for hydraulic log splitters – like our top recommendation the Forest Master FM5. That said, there are some manual log splitters out there with designs that enable you to easily split logs, no matter your physical ability, without the use of a hammer.Blade: The blade doesn’t have to be razor-sharp to be effective because the applied force splits the wood grain quite easily. More advanced blades are contoured to split the log into numerous pieces of kindling with one blow. Most blades are cast as part of the structure. We have also seen removable blades made from a mixture of steel and titanium. These are very hard and take a good edge, which helps if you have particularly dense wood to split. Normally, that’s not an issue, and the fixed-blade type is more than adequate. A. A basic cast iron model will last for years with very little attention. You can clean it with a stiff brush and warm soapy water and remove stubborn deposits with mineral spirits. An occasional wipe with a light oil will help prevent rust, and if you like the decorative appearance, you might want to give it a coat of paint every couple of years. All in all, this is a log splitter that would suit just about everyone, and that’s not something that you can say about most other wood splitters! Whether you only occasionally split logs but want a tool to make that dreaded task easier (and even fun!), or you split logs regularly and are looking for a way to speed up the process, the Swedish Log Splitter would be a great investment. compact and portable:small and light enough to take anywhere! whether it's the lake, camping, at-home use, having an 5.1 inch diameter makes it the perfect log splitter. weighing in at only 1.56-pounds it can be easily transported and fits comfortably in tight spaces. If you’re looking for a log splitter that doesn’t require any assembly whatsoever, then this is it. Out of the five log splitters that I tested, this one was the fastest to put together. All you have to do is remove the rubber tip and you’re good to go!
