The Carlton Hardware™ Firewood Drill Bit provides high-level precision by weakening the logs at multiple angles. The logs I got delivered were just a bit too big to burn well in my fireplace, so I take a load in and split them with the drill and life is so much easier.

My first purchase was a bit of a failure in a sense, it also gave me the insight of what to look for in these splitters. I think this would work great for camping also to make some smaller kindling to get your fire started. Tip 5 - Works best to break down already split logs into smaller kindling or smaller logs to fit into a small stove.

Save yourselves hours of exhausting labor each year with a bit that turns your drill into a wood splitting machine!

I recently received this drill bit from Carlton Hardware, loaded it into my drill (just a cordless DeWalt), grabbed a hunk of firewood (lodgepole pine) and went to town.

Tip 4 - If you drill on the left side of the log/wood then it will take advantage of the rotation of the drill. The problem with the others is that they come in 2 pieces, so when it gets stuck in the wood, they reverse the drill and it comes apart. And mine stays outside by the wood pile most of the year (I bring it in the garage for the winter), with almost no rust.

In seconds I had it split into five small pieces - no hatchet, no need to go outside, no whacking involved, no missing and getting your fingers.
