Review: Build quality, price. - Is this normal, see the picture, i missed a log couple of time so hit it past the point of blade and hit the handle next to the actual axe, didn't break as expected as I used to own older model which has never been sharpened in 15 years and still is in use by parents.. This is good price and good quality. Handle is not better than old one, probs the same I would say, older one was grippier Review: Excellent splitting axe - I bought this axe to replace an old hickory shafted axe, a little unsure about a plastic handle. Having used the axe it’s excellent, sharp and well balanced, reasonably priced and with good guarantee. Easily splits seasoned sycamore and is lighter than my old axe. First time in a long while I’ve used an axe and not been left with back ache given that I’ve had back surgery. Brilliant.

Having used the axe it’s excellent, sharp and well balanced, reasonably priced and with good guarantee. Easily splits seasoned sycamore and is lighter than my old axe. First time in a long while I’ve used an axe and not been left with back ache given that I’ve had back surgery. Brilliant. Well done Fiscars ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great splitting axe *by B***M on 13 November 2024* Very comfortable weight and feel. Unlike my wood shaft axe, you do not need to worry about damaging it with an over strike. I was expecting more shock feed back than wood but never noticed any difference. I would advise wearing gloves in case it shatters (which I doubt it will) as fibre shards in skin is not fun. Overall great axe which I can see lasting for years. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fiskars Splitting Axe L X21, 1.6 kg, Incl.
