Chopping wood goes hand in hand with living on a farm, chopping wood can be a tedious chore.

Log splitters are a great tool. The DR Power Equipment has made its log splitter simpler, stronger, and faster with its Kinetic Flywheel, letting the Pro LK34 Log Splitter do the hard work for you.

The electric start engine can split logs up to 24” L x 30” D in just 3 seconds – one of the fastest in the industry.

DR Power has kept it simple, building the K34 with very few moving parts, reducing the chances of anything going wrong during the process of splitting your wood.

Keeping things simple doesn’t mean you can’t go stronger, with twin 75lb. flywheels spinning at 400 rpms with 9.5 ft.-lbs. of torque in the Briggs and Stration engine.

Rack and pinion gears allows energy to be unleashed – making the 3-second cycle time possible.

Whether you love or hate chopping wood, the K34 Log Splitter by DR Power Equipment is a great alternative tool for chopping wood, making the task go by quicker and easier.

The ToughBuilt® Reload Utility Knife is an innovative quick-change tool expertly crafted from pro-grade materials with a groundbreaking, patented mechanism that allows it to receive spring-loaded blade magazines and autoload a fresh blade with just a flick after discarding the used blade with the push of a button. Just like a standard firearm operation, the mags drop away clear, and a new one can be charged into the chamber with a snap.

Replacement of worn blades is safe and straightforward with a one-button blade-release function that extracts used blades before charging in a fresh one by simply retracting the actuator and flicking it forward again. With a simple press of the mag release, a positive, spring-loaded magazine ejection drops mags clear from the tool or into an open hand. A new magazine can then be loaded inside, making it easy to switch from one kind of blade to another in a flash.

All Toughbuilt mags are integrated with a lower chamber indicator switch. Positions 1, 2, or 3 remind the Pro which kind of blades are loaded in a magazine without extracting the mag from a pouch or pocket. Designed for rigorous cross-platform use, the Reload Knife utilizes quality construction featuring smooth aluminum alloy and zinc alloy for corrosion resistance. It is wrapped in rugged, grippy, non-slip rubber soft-touch housing to protect the tool from shocks and drops while creating a more dexterous hand purchase on the instrument.

The integrated finger ridge guard helps keep Pros safe while cutting robust materials. It includes a five-pack of ToughBuilt universal straight-edge blades and a five-pack of ToughBuilt’s specialized hook blades, which use an intelligent, precision-milled proprietary edge design. The blades work interchangeably with both the Reload Knife and the ToughBuilt Scraper Utility Knife or any standard utility knife.
