I used it to remove a Hibiscus shrub stump bordered by a concrete foundation and irrigation line. I started by cutting down the 5-foot tall and wide Hibiscus shrub with my reciprocating saw to the stump shown in the first picture. Then I used the hefty root-cutting tool to split the stump into as many pieces as I could. I drove it down with about 5 impacts per split with as much force as I could while keeping my back straight. Since I am an average height of 5'-11", this required me to squat slightly to keep good mechanical form. The metal-on-metal impacts are loud, so I recommend hearing protection. Eye protection is a must for the last steps, too. Once the wedge head was down as far as possible, I used the tool as a lever to snap the smaller pieces away from the stump. I repeated this until most of the stump was cleared. When the stump was too mauled up to continue splitting, I used my mattock or reciprocating saw with a demolition blade to clear away the remaining pieces. This is an effective hand tool alternative to an electric demolition hammer. It works best on a freshly cut greenwood stump or one that has significant decay. Like any heavy hand tool, expect some physical effort. The stump and roots took me about 15 minutes to clear. The only possible negative thing I noticed is there could be a pinch hazard if the user keeps their hands too close to the top while sliding the handle. This is nullified by wearing good leather gloves and using careful technique. Overall, this is an effective time-saving tool and will used on my next planter-clearing project. ## Frequently Bought Together - Smarkey Root Cutting Tool, Hole Digging Tool, Tamping Bars, Garden Remover Tool for Bamboo Tree Roots Rocks Shrubs Bushes Stumps - Heay Duty - ROOT ASSASSIN 48" Garden Shovel/Saw - The Original & Best Award Winning Combo Gardening Spade Tool, Yard, Root, Stump, Tree Removal, Landscaping, Trimming Specialized Digging (48" Shovel/Saw) - B'ROOT BAR - Root Cutting Tool, Digging Tool, Vertical Axe, Tamping Bars (72" B'root Bar) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nl/products/533380098-root-cutting-tool-firewood-splitter](https://www.desertcart.nl/products/533380098-root-cutting-tool-firewood-splitter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Netherlands* *Store origin: NL* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
