In use, the blade is driven into your stock with wooden maul or heavy mallet, and the handle is pulled or pushed as needed to direct the split's runout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLie-Nielsen's froe was designed in cooperation with woodworking expert \u003cb\u003e Drew Langsner. \u003c\/b\u003eUnlike most other froes, the blade and handle loop are constructed separately, then welded together. Since the handle loop is perfectly round and the handle has a stepped tenon for mounting, the handle-blade connection is much more robust than most froes. Add a lag screw and washer and you have a froe that's hard to beat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eLie-Nielsen Langsner Froe\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin: -3px 0px 0px 0px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack enameled blade is 3\/8\" thick x 1-1\/2\" wide x 12\" long.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall length of the kiln-dried, hard maple handle is 17-1\/2\".\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighs 2.75 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/blog.woodworkingtooltips.com\/2014\/03\/march-lie-nielsen-tool-of-the-month-the-froe\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCLICK HERE \u003c\/a\u003e to read Lee Laird's review of the Lie-Nielsen Froe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lie-Nielsen Toolworks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50821851775258,"sku":"134321","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0904\/5167\/3370\/files\/134321-01.jpg?v=1776137344","url":"https:\/\/www.highlandwoodworking.com\/products\/lie-nielsen-froe","provider":"Highland Woodworking","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
