Forged safety splitting wedge made of high-quality aluminum. Increased stroke height and maximum splitting effect due to a 30° turned shape. Optimum handling and larger striking surface due to an oval shape. Misses and damage to the outer striking surface are minimized. Acute-angled engraved grooves on the front side, additional saw tooth on the back side, and barbs on both sides prevent the wedge from slipping out and jumping back when driving in, especially in frozen timber. Straight drive-in due to guide ribs. Extremely stable. Only suitable for splitting; not a felling wedge. DBGM (German Federal Utility Model).
