If you want to seperate your wood’s fibers , very accurate , very easy and fast , using a little physical force , the splitting froe , is a woodowrking tool you should have .

It isn’t an expensive one , it’s a very simple tool , but it helps the most any carpenter . It has many advantages and one disadvantage – restriction .

See all the necessary info and the way to use a splitting froe , in HERE .

It’s very easy to find a very cheap frow in the flea markets and having a long with a shorter one is the ideal situation i think , but this depends rom the wood you’re splitting .

This Timber Tuff from Amazon is a decent froe with a nice heavy duty steel alloy(+ anodized) and a hardwood for a handle . It isn’t expensive , even if it isn’t super cheap .

Anodized or not , always protect your blade from rust especially when its finishing will go away , from the first times of use and the maul hittings .

It’s a 15″ froe with a 2″ blade and 3+ lbs weight . Get it from Amazon here .

I use this kind of froes , but many of mine are old vintage ones and i’ll give you a suggestion for this type of froe .

The Lehman’s Wood-Splitting Froe , Made of Hickory and Steel .

Having the same approach and craftsmanship , this froe comes from the US and it’s a little bigger (16″) , than the previous one .

This froe has a hardened steel to be more sturdy and long lasting and the quality is super . It weights 4 pounds and this one along with the previous will make you complete to kindling wood .

There aren’t for super extra big logs , but all the other regular diameters ters are inside their splitting range .

Get it from the Amazon here .

I don’t think that you should spend more in this area , a 50$ more or less range of bucks would be enough and cool and you won’t need anything more .

Keep woodworking and stay safe .
