Twisted firewood wedge WOODLOT EQUIPMENT Miscellaneous 9-2-25 A new twist in wood-splitting wedges is catching on fast with wood choppers in the Northwest. The new Lightning Twist Wedge uses the torquing power of a slight twist to split wood.
"Makes splitting even the hardest, knottiest wood much easier," says Doug Fraser, sales manager for the manufacturer, True Dimensions, Clackamas, Ore., noting that because it splits so much easier the twist wedge can be used with just a 3 or 4 lb. hammer on most woods.
The twist wedge is similar in size to a conventional wedge but it has a very narrow cutting edge. It enters the wood easily with no tendency to pop out of the split. As it drives deeper, a twist in the body of the wedge forces the wood apart. The downward impact is converted into outward torque that splits the log apart at a much faster rate.
The twist wedge sells for $12.95, including postage.
