Stainless Steel Trunk Splitter by Roshi Bonsai Tools - 8" (206 mm)

Create dramatic bends, powerful deadwood features, and advanced structural designs with the Stainless Steel Trunk Splitter by Roshi Bonsai Tools. Designed for experienced bonsai enthusiasts and professionals, this specialized tool allows you to split trunks, branches, and heavy limbs with precision while minimizing unnecessary damage to surrounding tissue.

Trunk splitting is a valuable technique for creating extreme movement in rigid material, reducing branch thickness for tighter bends, and developing natural-looking deadwood features such as shari and hollow trunks. The precision-ground jaws provide excellent control while the durable stainless steel construction delivers the strength needed for demanding applications.

Whether you're working on junipers, collected material, or advanced styling projects, a trunk splitter opens the door to techniques that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to achieve.
