So looking at them it would be a case of get what you pay for?

Yes i think so. I have been looking at a hydro combi i think its one of the best splitters on the market. Wallenstian seem to do good machines at a reasonable price just did not do the length i required.

Ive got the Magik 13 as well. Excellent bit of kit, but in particular the 'leader control' system, which was an important aspect of my research before purchase, given that all the mainstream brands now insist on dual hand controls which can be annoying when your trying to balance and line up billets with the splitting head. The leader controls allow one handed use for the initial down stroke, and as soon as the blade makes contact with a surface (be it the log or your fingers) it stops applying any further pressure, but leaves enough to hold what ever in place, until you pull down on the second lever.

Don't think any other brand has a system as efficient as this.
