Kindling Cracker King – XL Cast Iron Kindling Splitter (Original Patented Design)
The Kindling Cracker King takes the award-winning design of the original Kindling Cracker and scales it up for larger firewood and higher-volume splitting. With a wider top ring and taller frame, it makes creating perfect kindling safer, faster, and easier—without ever swinging a sharp axe. Made from premium, Australian-cast iron, this heavy-duty splitter is built for decades of reliable use.
Simply place your log inside the 9" cast-iron safety ring and strike it with a mallet or hammer. The force drives the wood down onto the built-in splitting wedge for a clean, controlled split every time—ideal for fireplaces, wood stoves, fire pits, campfires, outdoor kitchens, smokers, and more.
