desertcart.com : Kindling Cracker XL Kindling Cracker King Firewood Splitter - Kindling Splitter Wood Splitter Wood Splitting Wedge Manual Log Splitter Wedge : Tools & Home Improvement

Review: BEST kindling maker I've ever owned!!! A++++++ - I'm not one to write a lot of reviews, but this one is definitely deserving of one!!! First off, I liked the story behind how this product was developed. More importantly, this is HANDS DOWN the BEST kindling maker I've ever had! It's sturdy, safe, quick, and just plan WORKS....all with minimal effort! You can make your sizes as big or as little as you want. No more hoping to hit where you want with an ax/hatchet, picking up, trying to stand the piece on end, and repeating over and over. Go with the KC King (XL) size and it'll chew through anything thrown at it! I'd say I'd order again, but with how well this is built, I'd imagine it'll be a generational hand-down type of tool, and will last. VERY impressed!!!!!!
Review: Durable and Safe - This is a great tool for splitting pre-cut wood. Very sturdy and much safer than splitting with an axe... a good investment for fire pit wood or fireplace wood. I am a grandma in my 70's and able to use this tool. Able to purchase in different sizes ;chose a sturdy, hefty hammer for use with this tool...wear safety glasses

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I'm trying to decide between the standard cracker and the xl/king size cracker. anyone have the xl/king size and wish they had gotten the smaller one?**
A: The xl/king is the best buy to cut standard size firewood. I've recommended this to several people who have been happy they purchased the xl.   This is the safest tool you can buy to cut kindling. Almost fun to use.

**Q: How does it handle wood 18 inches in length?**
A: If you have the Cracker up on a stump the wood will have a better chance to split in two and slid off the sides. 18 inches is not so bad for the cracker, if I split a long piece and its still attached at the top I beat one side and that usually does the job.  Well seasoned wood will just split all the way up, but if you're working with knots be prepared to finish the stringy parts by hand.

**Q: What height stump works good when using the XL?**
A: Less than the 15” height of the unit and up to 22” - 24”+.  BUT your wood type makes a huge difference the dryer the wood and straighter the grain makes cutting many lengths easy.  The greener/wetter woods and cross grain types like hickory - tougher the job.  Overall handles most of my usual lengths/hardwoods and just makes life simpler.

**Q: I have the xl version, and i have to use too much effort to get even smaller logs to split with a 4lb mallet. the wood bounces off the wedge. advice?**
A: I suggest screwing it down on another larger log to hold it in place. Are you splitting green wood or cured? Dry wood splits easily with mine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well made and works great!
*by D***C on January 10, 2026*

This thing is very well made and works great! I prefer smaller logs for my fire pit and it makes it super simple and safe to reduce the size of the larger logs I have. I have terrible aim swinging a maul so this makes splitting much easier. I use a 4lb sledge with a 16" handle. Highly recommend.
