Manufactured from drop-forged steel with a black painted finish, this square-head wedge delivers the mass and hardness required to split rounds cleanly when driven with a sledgehammer. The handle is not included. At 5 pounds, it offers a balance of driving force and control suited for splitting hardwood and softwood rounds in the field or at a job site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis splitting wedge is a common tool for arborists, landscapers, utility workers, and general laborers who need to split logs, break apart timber, or wedge apart materials during removal or site-clearing work.
