Customer Reviews

Gerber Sport Axe = Fiskars Handy Axe - $30
I have the Fiskars version of this axe and am writing this review to tell you how to save your money. The Gerber-branded version of this axe bears the Fiskars stamp molded into the polyamide near the non-edge side of the head. Go to your local outdoor store and check it out if you don't believe me.

Picked up the Fiskars version at Lowe's for $20, and couldn't be more pleased. Excellent for making tinder, could be great for other things but I've only had it for a day. The only difference with the Gerber is that it does not come with the ballistic sheath (comes with a hard plastic safety cover/handle) but Gerber will send you the sheath if you ask nicely. It seems to fit well in the ice axe loops in my pack so I will probably just tape the blade if I take it camping.

My review only achieves four stars because the handle is rather slippery. Pick up a roll of hockey tape and wrap from the butt of the handle up, and you're still paying half price.

What a great buy!
bought this for the hubby to use in his law enforcement job, and is has come in handy SOOOO many times. He was even able to chop down a tree that had fallen in the path of his vehicle into small, moveable pieces so he could continue his pursuit. He takes it with him everyday on the job and to date has used it more times than he can count! An absolutely awesome buy!

GREAT AX FOR THE MONEY
I own this ax and the Gerber splitter and I am very pleased with them. The handles are indestructible and the ax heads are easily sharpened. I also consider it a plus that neither is made in China. No one wants quality control issues with axes.
