The Kindling Cracker King takes the patented, award-winning design of the original Kindling Cracker, and allows you to split even larger firewood the fast, easy and safe way. Made of solid cast iron, the splitting wedge is set inside the patented 9in. inside dia. safety ring, never allowing your fingers near the blade. To split a piece of wood, place it inside of the frame and strike it with a maul, it's the perfect way to make the best kindling for your fire. From the maker of the award-winning original Kindling Cracker, this king-sized version maintains the same incredible design quality, while increasing your firewood splitting capabilities even more. The enhanced safety ring has been expanded to a full 9in. inside dia., keeping your fingers safely away from the blade, while allowing you to split wood almost 40% larger than with the original Kindling Cracker. By adding height to the original Kindling Cracker, the taller 17in.H king-sized frame makes it possible to split longer pieces of firewood without worrying about running out of room below the splitting wedge. Quality abounds in this rugged, one-piece cast iron frame, custom forged in an industry-leading Australian foundry The beefy, H-designed base features a broad 10.5in.W stance with permanent-mount bolt holes built right in, offering the steady, rock-solid hold you need while splitting wood. A perfectly angled splitting head that never needs sharpening pairs with a durable frame design with no moving parts to break, offering virtually maintenance-free performance. Smart construction and a timeless design ensure that, with just a bit of care, the Kindling Cracker King will stand ready for use and be handed down for generations. There's never any need to swing a sharp, heavy a*e - the cast iron splitting head remains stationary, permanently mounted inside a cast iron frame.
