fabulous hatchetDec 14, 2008
By KG "Jeff"
Hatchets just don't come better than this. It will take a very sharp edge and hold it all day long. It's not a splitting axe. It isn't an axe at all. What it is though is a tough as nails hatchet that will get any job done that a hatchet is meant to do. If you want a splitting axe get a Fiskars brand splitting axe. If you want a chopping axe Fiskars makes one of those that is also 5 stars. If you want to clear brush on your favorite ATV trail or you want to chop kindling for your campfire this hatchet can't be beat. Just don't expect it to be something it isn't.

one awesome ax !Mar 05, 2008
By Travis
I have purchased several of these axes for my family and we love them, they are extremely sharp and cut with ease, the one fault that I'm willing to put up with is that they do dent and nick the cutting edge pretty easily because the blade is so fine edged, even when nicked up they cut way better than other axes, I have never found a better cutting edge than these

Fine lightweight hand axOct 20, 2009
By Paul Claxton
This hand ax came razor sharp from the manufacture and has held an edge in light use so far. At 14" long it's a big hand ax and despite it's lightweight feels good in the hand. It is better suited for cutting than splitting with its blade's profile. The back end makes short work of tent stakes.

GREATOct 18, 2009
By Bradley Thompson "giggity"
These axes are amazing, they cut trees down in fractions of the time others do, i used them for my eagle project where we had to gut out 600 sq yards of dense brush and trees, and it took less than 200 hours with alot of little kids workingwith them. They are comfortable, and work perfect. This is by far the best axe/hatchet i have ever seen. period.

Good handle, not so good head/steelJun 20, 2007
By Megasin
I bought this axe after watching the Fiskars axes being run over with a giant truck and not breaking. Fiskars axes being made in Finland so they seem like good quality. I've been using this axe to split a lot of wood. It does a decent job on softer wood like pine. It doesn't do so well on the harder woods. This is due to the edge being too soft. It rolls very easily. Now, I'm not a metalurgist but I can tell you that either the steel used in these axes is very low quality or they just harden it very soft (53-54RC)so edges won't chip. I think it's both. In contrast, a high quality, axe type steel can be very though yet at the same time can have a thin edge to chop well. This isn't the case here. I do like the fiberglass handle that's why I still use this axe. The handle is very light so most of the weight is on the head. In summary: Good hande, not so good head/steel.
