English term or phrase: froe
A froe (or frow), shake axe or paling knife is a tool for cleaving wood by splitting it along the grain. It is an L-shaped tool, used by hammering one edge of its blade into the end of a piece of wood in the direction of the grain, then twisting the blade in the wood by rotating the haft (handle).

Pesquisei bastante e não achei um termo equivalente no Brasil.

fendedor de madeira


Explanation:
EN: froe - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Froe
ES: hendedor https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hendedor_(carpintería)
PT: fendedor*

Traducão deduzida a partir do espanhol. O paradigma "h" en espanhol geralmente corresponde ao"f" em português: hijo (filho), hoja (folha), harto (farto), etc. Portanto: hendedor --> fendedor

fendedor: que ou que fende ou racha
http://www.aulete.com.br/fendedor

"O fendedor é uma placa que se encaixa ao corte feito pela lâmina da serra eque é eficaz na prevenção de contragolpes por diminuir a tendência da lâmina de travar o corte." - https://www.manualslib.com/manual/744422/Dewalt-Dwe7470.html...

"The origin of the word froe is not clear, and some references find it spelled frow. One possibility of its roots can be found in the Old English word fro, which meant "away", which was the direction you hammered the froe to split the wood." -- Wikipedia


Example sentence(s):
  • Ela se ofereceu para fazer um mural ou alguma outra pintura em troca do empréstimo do fendedor de madeira,
  • É muito comum encontrar desenhos de um fendedor de madeira com suas próprias mãos na rede, seus componentes não são caros e a montagem não levará muito tempo.rede,

rachador froe/fendedor froe


Explanation:
Parece não existir ainda tradução para o português. Acho que eu traduziria como "rachador froe" ou "fendedor froe", para distinguir essa ferramenta - comum nos EUA no período colonial - dos rachadores e fendedores tradicionais usados nos países de língua portuguesa e espanhola.

neutral  Oliver Simões: Colega, o “froe” depois do termo não quer dizer nada para um falante de PT. Quando é assim, é melhor encontrar uma forma de expressar a ideia em PT.
