Okay, before the conversation starts, you are free to both seek out a product that does not cost as much, and you are free to pay that price again, before the Fiskars axe wear out. I've bought a splitting maul, a garden fork, a pickaroon, and now an axe from Fiskars. The tools they make have a certain heft to them, a feeling you've bought something that is made well, with quality materials. The splitting maul has gone through three hurricanes with me, and I bought the axe because I wore the old one out. You can find lighter axes. But you're going to do more work with a lighter axe head. The photos shown are what killed my old axe. This is what I need an axe for. If I don't pull that stump out of the ground with the help of the Fiskars I'll come back and explain why it failed. But these people make tools like they mean it. I'm 65 years old and I cannot afford to use junk.

nice build quality. great handle with good grip and feel. good value for the money.

Exactly what u would expect. Nice axe

good balance, could be a little heavier,not a bad taper for splitting,grip is fine

Works great. Only issue is the rubber protection at the end is tearing from use.

The media could not be loaded. The factory edge is all messed up, got a bunch of heat stress and chips in the blade. the steal does seem of high quality. However I can see a whole bunch of low-grade adhesive where the blade and the handle connect which makes me feel extremely unsafe. I do not believe I will be using this product. So long story short in between my fear of the blade flying off the handle and along with the heat stress I fear the blade May shatter throwing shrapnel and seriously injuring somebody

Easy to make kindling!

Great weight and balanced for the work it was designed for, arrived sharp and still sharp
