Customers are not satisfied with the bounce of the wood splitter. They mention that it bounces out of the log when they are about to give it a hard blow. Some customers also mention that the wedge constantly rebound and pops out.

"...'s driven into the edge of the first wedge angle they have a tendency to just pop out with the next hit...." Read more

"...This repeated 2-3 times before it finally stopped bouncing out of the round." Read more

Where it comes to a point you have to sharpen on a grinder.

Reviewed in Mexico on November 13, 2023
Me llegó el producto y la impresión que me dio fue buena, la punta tiene filo, el uso que le daré será para partir leña por lo cual me parece perfecto la forma, a los laterales tiene pestañas que abren paso, las medidas que tiene son: 22.3cm de largo y la cabeza es de 4x4.5cm.
El acabado en la pintura es buena parece de calidad, pero no me fijo en eso por el uso rudo que le daré, en cuanto al peso tiene aproximadamente 3.50kg.

El paquete llegó en buen estado, venía protegido por una bolsa de burbujas 🫧 dentro de un caja .

Daré reseñas del producto meses más adelante para ver si cumple con el trabajo.
