Kindling Cracker – Safe, Fast & Easy Kindling Splitter (Original Model)
The Kindling Cracker is the safer, smarter way to make perfect kindling—without swinging a sharp axe. Simply place a piece of firewood inside the cast-iron safety ring and strike it with a mallet, hammer, or another piece of wood. The force drives the log onto the built-in splitting wedge for a clean, easy split every time.
