No, the reason they're found next to chainsaws is what happens when a chainsaw blade hits a steel wedge. Badness.Not to be rude but plastic wedges are for felling not splitting. This is the reason they are found next to the chainsaws.
You can use a plastic wedge for splitting with an axe or maul just fine.
A metal wedge will last longer but is intended for a maul or a sledge and must be cared for to prevent rust; plastic wedges are much more flexible and can be used with a variety of tools for a variety of purposes but require almost no care.
