Only bad thing I can say about this ex is that it comes so dull that it wouldn't cut hot butter. Plan on spending a good 2 hours on it to get it razor sharp and then you'll have a great axe.

Well made axe with good Steel. I wish it would have been sharp out of the box. It took me about an hour and a half to get it hair splitting Sharp. Works like a charm now. Only thing bad I can say about it is when I got it it was so dull that I think it would have bounced off of a stick of butter.

I recently had back surgery and splitting wood and kindling was difficult with my old axe and hatchet. They were heavy for their size and dulled pretty quickly. I used my new ones today and they split the wood on the first hit for me. The blades are sharp and the handles well built. I think these two will be with me pretty much forever, unlike some of the other axes and hatchets I have owned prior. I recommend the product.

Realy holds an edge well. Great balance. Realy is the best axe out there!
