The Safe-T Split Wedge from Fiskars is designed to split particularly hard pieces of wood. Thanks to the grooves on its surface, it has a better grip in the wood and can split more effectively. Its 90-degree angled blade is also very practical. The Fiskars Split Wedge is made from hardened C40 steel and has a Rockwell hardness of 36-42 HRC. Weighing 2,400 grams, it is very robust and easy to handle. The head of the 24-centimeter long wedge features a special polymer striking surface, which is surrounded by a metal ring. This is specifically designed to dampen the vibrations that occur upon impact, thereby reducing the risk of potential material splintering. The striking surface can be replaced if necessary. The split wedge meets European safety standards and carries the "Tested Safety" seal. The exceptional design of this tool has been awarded the prestigious Red Dot Design Award. Additionally, it received the highest rating of "very good" in practical tests from the DIY magazine "Selbst ist der Mann.".
