This is one bad little axe. I use it just like a knife, split wood, make feather sticks, and shaveings to start fires. I will never use another axe. This one will probably last a lifetime.

Great axe, lightweight yet strong. The head can hold an amazing edge, comfortable to the hand (I did wrap my handle in hockey tape). It lashes to the side of my backpack easily. I don't head into the woods without it.

I also have one of the original models. Bought 19 years ago. Re sharpened and re ground several times. I'm a gardener for a living and all our heating is solid fuel. One of my primary tools for both jobs, it's scratched and dented from use, the reverse hammer head is piened on the edges. But no sign of failing in use. Fill the holow handle with expanding foam filler, makes a much better choping sound. Get this longer handled version, more efficient swing. great design and worth every penny.

Great Axe Josh - OCT 18, 2012
It's nearly the same axe as Fiskars. Holds up great, razor sharp edge, only feels fragile because of how light it is (makes it easier on hands actually) but is super strong. This one looks cooler though ;) everything you could ask from an axe; right down to the no-slip grip. Good ergonomics and cuts deep. Unless you wear gloves or have good calousses it'll give blisters though, but I guess that goes for anything.

Great Hatchet Mason - MAY 30, 2012
I Have one of the original models. I absolutely love it! I never go camping without it. The hollow handle makes it very light weight and perfect for backpacking. the blade sharpens easily to a razor sharp edge. I resharpen it after every-overnight camp out when i get home. It never ceases to amaze me that
I can get the blade sharper than most of my pocket knives. However the hollow handle has a plastic feel to it and feels like it could easily break, but I'm careful with it and it has no signs of wear or damage. I think I could definitely be more abusive to it and it would hold up perfectly. The bottom line: A perfect hatchet for the weight-conscious backpacker.

hatchet and sheath Daryush - JAN 29, 2012
the axe has really helped me a lot and it is very durable and will not let you down but the sheath or carrying case is not quite good and they should really give it with a better sheath.
