Does what it's supposed to...sort of.
Overall quality of the tool is decent. It ain't sharp, so you're gonna' have to sharpen it, like big time. (think: angle grinder). I think the pictures show the blade shorter than it actually is, so if you're going to chop wood in a bucket, it's too long. You could shorten it, but what I do is use bicycle innertube bands to hold the wood together after splitting.. If not in a bucket, you'll need two bands minimally.Handle is hickory, and seems to stand up well (so far). It's replaceable if need be. On a laughable side note, I use an official USBC (maple) wooden bowling pin as my mallet! Works great, and it will never die!

Tough and ready to use
I do spoon carving and this has really helped splitting logs for use. Great buy.

study but incredibly poor finish
sturdy but incredibly poor finish. the edges had burrs (large ones) from the poor sharpening job they must have gone through. fine purchase if really overpriced for what it is. with some sharpening and honing, im sure it will be a robust enough tool for what i have in mind

Nice Froe!
Very nicely made and ruggedly welded. I used it with a homemade sweet gum mallet to split firewood kindling. Very satisfied.

Bent on me with work it should be able to do.
Generally, I'm pretty unhappy with it. I'm fairly sure they are selling a decoration as a tool.I had trouble with it at the start - a crap grind at a terrible angle for the kind of work you'd need to do with it. Won't start without a tremendous amount of help, and the worst part is that it bent on me with mild force.I am also not a fan of whatever acrylic spray they put on it to make it look like black iron, as it peels and gunks up the whole processes as well. I was not expecting the best tool in the world, but holy this thing is a piece of junk. I guess I'll hang it on my wall as that's the best use case for the thing.I should not be able to bend a nearly 1/4 inch iron bar with the amount of force I was putting on it.

can't handle heavy work
It's good, but still too malleable
