Leborgne 2.1Kg red forged steel splitting wedge

The Red Splitting Wedge Leborgne is a sturdy, ergonomic, and highly effective tool for splitting wood, especially thick logs, long logs, or logs with knots. It is used with the mass side of a sledgehammer or with a maul. Its head, made of forged and tempered steel, is particularly robust and resistant to wear and crushing. The spiral shape allows this wedge to sink into the wood while rotating, significantly increasing the splitting capacity of the cutting edge. This wedge is very reliable, high-performing, and highly durable.
