ABSTRACT:
A manual log splitting device for splitting a log has a first assembly including a base plate for resting of the log and a first upright extending upwardly from the base plate. A second assembly having an upright sleeve, impact plate, and wedge assembly, is axially and slidably mounted on the first upright with the upright sleeve. A user splits the log by causing the second assembly to move towards the base plate such that the wedge assembly passes through and splits the log. A receptacle abuttingly engages the upright sleeve and the base plate when the second assembly is in a resting position where the wedge assembly is slightly spaced apart from the base plate. Thus, movement of the second assembly towards the base plate beyond the resting position, and contact therebetween, is prevented.
