Has potential...,
October 28, 2009
By MrGraffix
from central iowa
"I ordered this 4-way wedge not counting on it fitting my Brave 26-ton splitter. It didn't either. But it was close enough so I cut off the square steel band that slips over back of oem wedge and made a new one and now it seems to fit fairly well. It does work the splitter considerably harder, and the logs get stuck on the wedge much easier than b4, but it does what it's billed to do."

A Good Idea,
March 16, 2009
By jwatts07
from Alpharetta, Ga
"This is a great product. I have been using it for most of the winter. It slips OVER the Northern Tool splitter. So if you do not have the Northern Tool branded splitter it may not work.
The only downside is it sits on the splitter with any type of bolting or welding. Sometimes this causes issues especially if the quad splitter gets stuck in a piece of would that doesn't split all the way.
It does speed up the splitting process.
I would recommend buying this product to a friend."

4 way split.,
November 18, 2008
By Ollie
from Boston
"Works good with the right size wood. I will make a seperate pile that is all the right size then split it all at once.
I used a hand held grinder to sharpen it some and it make it work much bette.
I have a splitter that is on the smaller side.
but over all works great."

log splitter slip on wedge,
August 13, 2008
By Boone1946
from Shelby,Ohio
"Good quality made item. Unfortunately, it was not easily and safely adaptable to my non-Northern brand splitter,so I had to return it. Iwould highly recommend the part to anyone who has a Northern brand splitter that it is designed to fit. It would save a lot of time, effort, and gas."

Time Saver,
August 11, 2008
By tool4u
from Howell, Michigan
"What a great time saver. If you're tired of handling logs twice as much as necessary you have to get this 4 way splitter. Not only does it cut your splitting time in half but it cuts the amount of log handling by half...and for those of us over 50...need I say more.
One tip - I needed to weld my 4 way splitter wedge over the current wedge on my splitter (used my Northern Tool Auto Darkening Helmet), if you do this consider exactly where you want it located based on size of logs you split. I tend to get larger timber (12" plus diameter). In hindsight I should have welded it higher on the wedge to get a more even 4 way split of the log (instead I placed it dead center). You can't make your own for this price!"

Sturdy Wedge,
January 21, 2008
By Arrowthwr
from Gresham, OR
"I was surprised to find it well built and easily adapted for my use on my home built log splitter. I also purchased the extra wedge pieces to convert it to a 6 way wedge later on and it is still holdin up well. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a well built product."

Buy It! you will be glad you did!,
October 8, 2007
By Jimmer
from upper Michigan
"This sure speeds up the splitting job! It seems to be a bit pricey for all there is to it but it is a great idea. The steel is really soft and can be dinted easily. So be careful because your ram may be able to smash into it. I have welded and ground the leading edge on mine, even though it still worked fine."

Half the time,
October 8, 2007
By CrashVT
from Fletcher, VT
"I wish I had bought one of these years ago. It fit nicely over the wedge on my splitter and worked wonderfully. In addition to makeing four pieces instead of two it is a wider angle than my original wedge and splits pieces much faster. It has easily saved me half the time it used to take me to my annual batch of firewood."

4 way splitter,
July 11, 2007
By SuperSpliter
from Thomaston,Ga
"Why did it take a year for me to get this product. The day UPS brought it to me I could not wait to start playing. WOW what a big change!!! The logs were falling apart in just a short time. I could tell that the logs that will be done in a short time. 3or 4 cords will get split by one person in a short time, in 1 day. I'm HAPPY"
