From the Manufacturer
This superbly designed, compact axe defies the concept of ¿size matters¿. Fact is, a smaller axe has its place in the world. Canoe trips into the Northwest Territories when space is tight. Trail clearing when you want to travel fast and light. And in the hands of smaller-framed people tired of being bossed around by an overgrown axe. If any of the situations above describe you, this is your axe. Plus, it¿s crafted with all the fine details of its bigger counterparts, including a unique wedge-shaped blade that takes fewer swings to bust through the toughest timber. The FiberComp fiberglass composite handle is many times stronger than traditional wood handles, yet it¿s also light in weight and impervious to weather. Fiskars¿ insert molded design prevents the head from ever loosening or separating from the handle. And a lifetime guarantee means you can trust to really hack it.

Customer Reviews

Perfect mid size axe!
Well balanced and comfortable. This axe does an excellent job splitting smaller to mid sized logs.Edge maintains with a lot of use.Handle seems unbreakable.A quality peice of equipment! Another fiskars winner.

Magnificent Hand Ax
This ax from Fiskars is great - exactly what you expect from such a well-reputed company. For me, it easily meets all of my splitting/chopping needs, coming close to a full-size ax in efficiency, but without the space requirements. The handle is solid and feels indestructible, and the head holds an excellent edge. In my view, the perfect light duty ax.

Great little axe/splitter
An outstanding little axe and small wood splitter.

I got it for splitting 6-8" and smaller sizes of wood and making kindling and it is nothing short of perfect for splitting and light chopping chores as it is a real axe. I use 3 to 4 cords of wood a year so there's a lot of resizing done during the winter.

I like it as it works very well one handed for the average man and easily adapts to two handed chopping for those of lighter stature. It goes through a chunk of oak like a dream and is so much easier to use than the full size 6# maul.

I work with gloves so my only addition was to wrap 3/4 of the handle with a layer of friction tape to insure a solid non slip grip.
