With a Kindling Cracker, you will only ever need another piece of wood or a hammer to strike the wood, both are blunt instruments and it's a lot safer for your fingers. This makes it the safest way in the world for you to cut kindling, and you will be impressed with how much easier it is to cut kindling too. A Kindling Cracker is a fantastic accessory for every log fire, pizza oven, brazier or chip heater, and they are brilliant to have at any camp site or cabin to start those outdoor fires too. The Kindling Cracker is made in an Australian foundry. It consists of one solid piece of high-quality cast iron, so it's something that your grandkids' grandkids will use to split their own kindling, if cared for and used correctly. The only maintenance it needs is a bit of brushing off and maybe a touch of paint from time to time to look like new for generations. The simple, safe and easy-to-use design that began as a school science project has become a perennial award winner, from science fairs in New Zealand to regional and international recognition from Scientific American, International TeenBusiness, Google and more.
