The Micro Froe is designed for accurate wood splitting when working with smaller pieces of timber. Its compact size makes it particularly useful for green woodworkers, spoon carvers and bushcraft practitioners who need greater control than a traditional froe can offer. The hardened and tempered EN9 spring steel blade helps produce clean splits when preparing carving blanks, billets, pegs and small stock.
Whether creating wooden pegs, processing small branches for carving projects or preparing fine kindling, this tool allows controlled splitting along the grain. The curved beech handle provides a comfortable grip and good leverage, making it easier to work with smaller pieces of hardwood and softwood.
A valuable addition to woodworking workshops, Forest School tool collections and bushcraft kits, the Micro Froe supports practical hand-tool skills and traditional green woodworking techniques. It can be used to explore timber properties, develop precision tool use and create materials for carving, craft and outdoor learning projects.
Important: This tool has a sharpened blade and should only be used with appropriate adult supervision and suitable safety precautions.
