They're shite! You'd be better off with a lump hammer and bolster: in fact, you'd be better off with a jack-hammer!

I have a good quality Montolit splitter you can borrow for a day or two, if you're stuck.

Totally agree... Got one up for sale also... Has only split 3 blocks. At least you can get an angle on the block with a kango

I bought an almost new one of ebay last year for £40.
See last couple of posts here http://ext.pavingexpert.com/cgi-bin....6;st=20
Done some test cuts when I first got it which were ok-ish but has been in storage ever since.
Probably OK for a small diy project and then selling on but not for a tradesman.
