This is something that they should sell in the stores too but I haven't seen anything like this in the stores here.
This brings a huge convenience. Before this I had to bring the axe outside (so that I don't ruin the floor when the axe the axe misses the log or goes through the log too well) and try to stand wood up on a chopping block or grass and split it into kindling with the axe. it was a pain in the but because as the quarter log gets narrower, it didn't want to stay standing. and some logs wouldn't stand at all because it was cut at an angle. but with this, I can split the quarter logs into any size kindling in the warmth and comfort of the indoors, right by the wood stove with ease. There is not risk of hitting the floor. This allows me to use a hammer instead which is nice. and I can split the wood in a more comfortable kneeling stance. As opposed to being outside in the cold hunching over trying to split a skinny log the wind before it falls over causing me to miss. The half to carry it all in to the wood stove.
In actual use, the results depend on the type of wood that you are splitting. Bits of pine or fir 2" x 4" lumber will split with just a tap from a heavy hammer. Larger chunks of softwood like pine, fir, or spruce still split pretty well, but it is important to give the log some clearance in the top ring. I wouldn't try to split anything more than about 5 inches across. It also takes a little more effort to make the initial split on a round log. Even with softwood, the log takes several "whacks" to split. I would guess that it is the physics of the circular tight grain. After the log is split once, there are then fracture lines on the open surface that make additional splits easier.
The splitter also works with the red oak and white oak 4-5" thick branches that I had from a fallen tree. However, it does take a good bit more effort. The initial start of the split may take 6-7 strikes on a round log, with another 3 or 4 hits at least to push the split all the way through. Just like for the softwood, the second and smaller splits are a little easier, but they still require more work. For hardwood, a 5" log is about as much as the splitter can handle. It takes a good bit of effort and definitely requires that the stand be mounted firmly.
The bottom line is that this is a good splitter as long as you remember that it IS for kindling, not splitting big logs. The price/value ratio isn't quite as good as the major brand Kindling Kracker of the same size, also available through Amazon third-party. The difference between the two is that the Inertia Wood Splitter, even though at a higher price, is sold directly through Amazon and is available for faster shipping. I would recommend this product to anyone that needs to have a safe and fairly easy way to produce kindling.
