- Reviewed in Canada on April 26, 2024Verified PurchaseBought for husband for his bday and he loves it. He uses it all the time with no issues. Cuts everything he wants to chop with ease. Comfortable in the hand as well.
- Reviewed in Canada on March 19, 2024Verified PurchaseWhen I ordered I was worried it wouldn't be much more useful than a hatchet, hummed and hawed that the 26" might be better. Oh boy, this thing is MUCH more substantial than a standard camp hatchet, while being small enough to pack around quite easily.
Looking forward to putting it though its paces this summer.

- Reviewed in Canada on March 25, 2022Verified PurchaseThis is a fantastic all around axe. I use it for backpacking and camping trips. This is still a very well made item, it seems like something that will outlast me.
I love the weight and it can handle anything outside of splitting fresh logs. Great weight and feel when felling dead standing trees, and splitting dried wood.
If I ever lose mine I know that I will be right back here for another.
- Reviewed in Canada on June 23, 2022Verified PurchaseFirst off, good luck breaking this axe. It's built to withstand years of use. It had a reasonable edge, but a few minutes on the belt sharpener got it shaving-sharp. The two problems I have with it is the axe is minimally tapered to adequately split wood. It's okay, but there are much better options in the price and size range. Second, that one piece design, though very durable, is something you're going to pay for with every swing. Like I said, it's very close... Cheers!
- Reviewed in Canada on November 3, 2021Verified PurchaseI bought this last year , it came razor sharp and kept its edge after breaking many cords of fire wood, wooden handles axes no matter what wood the handle is made will eventually crack and game over , in a survival situation you need an axe that is all metal, because you may not be able to replace the wooden handle. Estwing is the very best axe for all purposes and will never break and need a new wooden handle. I rate this axe with 17 stars.
- Reviewed in Canada on May 22, 2024Verified PurchaseI recommend the product ? ?

- Reviewed in Canada on August 23, 2013Verified Purchasewonderful weight and size...bought the 24(?)inch too. can't see me needing that unless i became a lumberjack.
perfect for car camping, don't think i'd bring it backpacking, but if you can carry the weight of its solid construction it'll do some damage.
i also own an eswing hammer and equal in quality and reliability. great products all around, and made just south of the border. no boat ride for this guy!!
