I also have a Monster Maul. I no longer split much wood and burn it whole
now but used to split a lot of wood with it.
They were made by a company called something like "Homestead Products" -
their main product was a kit for barrel stoves. The stoves worked very
well, as did the maul.
Not only do the mauls work well, they don't get stuck in the wood like an
axe.
I don't think you can buy them anymore - I think the company has been out of
business for quite a few years.

The best splitting maul I have had is all metal. I think the name when
I bought it was Monster Maul. Heavier and blunter than a typical wood-
handled splitting maul, it seriously does the job. It will also make a
man of you if you are not already, and if you are already, it will
keep you in shape.
