My dad used to have these iron chisels, about 3" in diameter at the top,
coming down to about12" long. Wedges, I think they were called. Does
anyone have any idea of where I could find some of these today? I am a
woman woodworker, mainly toys, small tables, crafts, etc. But I do like
to use old weathered wood for my birdhouses, signs, etc. I just have
some logs to split up also. Help anyone?

Like the man said, you probably want a froe, not a wedge. It's easier
to make shingles, which it sounds like is what you're after.
