** Specifications **

Material: Unknown high carbon steel
Handle: Hickory

Overall length: 64 cm (25.2 in)
Edge length: 8.5 cm (3.35 in)
Weight: 1.2 kg (2.64 lbs)

** Pros / Cons **

Versatile design, applicable to a wide range of tasks
Comes with a shaving sharp edge and excellent edge geometry
Sturdy, tight fit

The unpolished forged surface might not appeal to everyone?
(sorry, couldn't find any more significant negatives)

** Verdict **

This has shown me how a good axe is supposed to perform, after some underwhelming experiences with cheap "tactical" axes / tomahawks. It makes wood chopping, splitting, carving etc. both easy and fun. It's well made, easy to maintain, and hits hard. Well worth the money in my opinion.

Price: $100-140
