A slide-hammer log spitter is a clever invention meant to keep you safe while spitting rounds of wood. The traditional way of splitting firewood is with a splitting axe or maul. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both of which involve you, the chopper, swinging and sharp and heavy tool. I shouldn’t have to say this but swinging an axe can be dangerous. It’s relatively safe with proper care and common sense, but accidents happen.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With a slide-hammer, your chances of getting hurt are greatly reduced.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A slide-hammer log splitter is a tool with a handle or weight which is lifted up and pulled downward, transmitting force upon impact. The wedge at the cutting end never moves from the place you set it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This eliminates\u00a0the chance of glancing blows entirely. This is why so many people are opting for this tool instead of a splitting axe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This page is meant to compare the top 5 slide-hammer log splitters<\/strong>.
