6lb Log Wood Splitting Maul – Key FAQs

• What’s the difference between a splitting maul and a felling axe?
  A splitting maul has a wedge-shaped head designed to force logs apart. A felling axe is slimmer for cutting across fibres and is better for chopping and felling.

• Is a 6lb maul suitable for home firewood?
  Yes, 6lb is a popular weight for splitting firewood, offering a good balance of power and control for most domestic logs.

• Does the polished cheek make splitting easier?
  It can help reduce friction as the head travels through the wood, supporting smoother splitting and less binding in some timbers.

• Why use an ash handle?
  Ash is strong and naturally absorbs shock, helping improve comfort and control during repeated swings compared with some other woods.

• Is this product age restricted in the UK?
  Yes. You must be 18 or over to purchase and accept delivery of this maul.
