Although the CNSuperpower log splitter is a stripped down log splitter, it has an excellent combination of features. Its features include:

Keeps your hands out of the way and keeps the log from moving

5 inch diameter top ring

Made from cast iron

Maintenance-free upkeep

Allow you to split logs with less force

Since you do not need an ax to use this log splitter (just a mallet), it is a much safer option than manually splitting kindling. The CNSuperpower allow you to split logs into small pieces into kindling without taking off a finger or toe.

One conceivable issue with this log splitter is that it is smaller and free standing. If you intend to use the splitter often, stabilizing the splitter while you work will pay off.

When you attach the splitter to something (a log will work well), it also raises the splitter to a more manageable height. Since the splitter is only a little over a foot tall, it will be helpful to raise it slightly.

Although this kindling slipper is great for just that, splitting kindling, you cannot split larger logs with this splitter. Since the diameter is only 6.5 inches, the splitter is only suited for kindling.

Even though the CNSuperpower Splitter is a little on the smaller size, its durability is a major plus. Since it is constructed from cast iron, it can hold up to repeated use and be sharpened.

Even though it can be sharpened, however, it is not the easiest task due to its shape. As the splitter piece is below the top ring, it can be difficult to sharpen it. The easiest way around this is with a file. Since its cast iron, it should not need to be sharpened frequently.

Another benefit of this kindling splitter comes from the fact that it is extremely simple to use. Rather than having to mess around with an ax or other manual methods, the CNSuperpower allows you to split kindling easily.

Overall, the CNSuperpower is a great option for kindling splitting. One of its greatest features is that it is extremely portable. It will be a perfect camping kindling splitter. In fact, that was what this splitter was originally invented for.
