Abstract: A log splitting apparatus comprising a frame, a main splitting head and a ram means mounted on the frame. The main splitting head includes; a vertically disposed wedge including a beveled leading splitting edge beveled along an angle sloping toward one vertical surface of the wedge and three horizontally disposed wedges attached to one side of the vertically disposed wedge. The horizontal wedges are positioned in such a fashion along the vertical wedge so as to allow a log to be split into a plurality of smaller billets of uniform size without jamming during the splitting process.
