Quiet power, split cleanly

A hand-forged line through grain: steady, certain, and unmistakably human.

At the block

The moment the wood agrees

Purpose in the grain

Chasing straight, dependable splits can turn a simple task into guesswork. The Hand-Forged Splitting Froe, Blade - 15.5 cm (6.1 inches) settles that argument with a confident bite and a controlled lever. Paired with a wooden mallet, it opens shingles, planks, or kindling along the natural path of the wood—no swinging overhead, no drama.

Calm, accurate work

Work feels safer and more deliberate when the blade stays low and the hands guide the line. The 52100 carbon steel edge arrives sharpened, so the first strike begins the habit of clean, repeatable results. Ash under the palm, leather at rest—the ritual becomes as considered as the pieces you make.

For makers who listen to wood

Woodworkers and DIY builders who value traditional, controlled splitting for shingles, planks, and tidy kindling.

How it’s used

Set the edge on the end grain, tap with a wooden mallet, then lever the handle to follow the split with control.
