Observations :
No sheath included and I personally don’t like this. For the price, one should be included especially considering how sharp this tool is. It doesn’t have to be as elaborate or as feature rich as the $70 version but something needs to be included to cover the blade.– one can be purchased for an additional of $70. It’s nice but for an axe of this price, something should have been included.
Impressions : Without the doubt, the nicest axe/hatch that I have ever used.
Gimping is a nice touch; does allow for finer control over the axe head with finer work.
My thoughts so far are :
Price : Without a doubt, this is one of the more expensive hand axes out on the market that I am aware of; In fact, this is more expensive than most full size axes and that is a problem. While is exceptionally nice and the quality is top notch…price is always going to be a touchy topic especially when you can buy a quality hatchet/hand exe for $50. Something to keep in mind, higher end products can provide a higher end experience which can make your life easier and can also be safer.
If you purchase too inexpensively you may get something dull out of the box or a tool which dulls quickly and won’t hold an edge. The other opposite end of this is that you can spend too much and you can go past the point of even returns for the money.
Speaking of which, coming up soon I will have a more budget friendly hatchet to put to through the paces in another Field Test!
…………….
Delimbing - Chopping Test
Standing Splitting – remember, when splitting, the trick isn’t strength and power, it is finesse. With finesse you can balance power and control, wildly swinging will result in someone getting hurt.
Lay-down – Center Split - Feather stick - Hammering
Strike guidance – straight or does it curve – this is important as not axe heads are created equal. Some heads will guide one way or the other
How does the handle absorb impacts : Much better than metal handles as wooden handles do a better job of absorbing vibrations.
If you're chopping with a hatchet, unless you are very well trained, chop from a kneeling position. This way an errant swing stops at the ground, not your leg.
If you're using a block, place the piece of wood being chopped towards its rear edge.
