ABSTRACT:
A log splitting head is disclosed which includes a downwardly-sloped top portion having a sharpened leading edge in the form of a V-shaped cutting blade. Beneath the top portion, a first row of vertical cutting blades is provided, each including a sharpened leading edge. Also included is a second row of vertical cutting blades beneath the first row of blades and structurally similar thereto. Separating the two rows of blades is a medial portion having a sharpened leading edge. The sides of the splitting head include two vertical plates having sharpened leading edges. All of these components are arranged in a specific angular configuration designed to accomplish log splitting with maximum efficiency. The entire unit is adapted for attachment to a horizontal platform, and enables the splitting of logs into uniformly sized sections.
