It doesn't have to be the diminutive; it can just be de splinter. If you do use the diminutive, words ending in 'r' get a 't' before the suffix: het splintertje.

Haven't done this in a while ...

Bei "der Splitter" muss ich zuerst an das Gerät denken, das man vor sein DSL-Modem hängt. ;)
Würde sonst immer das Material dazusagen: Holzsplitter, Metallsplitter, etc.
Wobei man zu Holzsplittern auch eher "Spreißel" sagt.
