The Kindling Cracker makes cutting kindling safer, quicker, and easier. Place a piece of firewood inside the cast iron safety ring, and strike with a blunt object such as a hammer, mallet, or another piece of wood, driving the wood down onto the splitting wedge for a quick, easy split. Made of high-quality cast iron, with no moving blade passing by your customer's hands, the Kindling Cracker creates the perfect kindling for fireplaces, campfires, wood stoves, smokers, and more.
