Camper's Axe, 14" Blue Axe with Stake Puller, E6-25A | Made in USA, Finish May Vary, Outdoor Versatility, Patented Shock Reduction Grip, Forged In One Piece, Heavy Duty Sheath

Bought this for my son after my old axe head became too loose to pound back on. This small axe is perfect size for camping, the concave wedge shape of the head makes it easier to split wood and pull the axe out, and the one piece construction seems very sturdy. The edge is easy to sharpen and can get knife style sharp. The handle is comfortable to use and does not slip when wet, but I would prefer a leather handle like the other ESTWING axes since it begins to rub by your pinky if you use this axe when it is wet. Overall, great axe for camping and making bonfires and it is a much better quality axe than the Gerber Chinese made ones which chip the edge easily.

I bought this to retire my old estwing that my grandfather gave to me probably 40 years ago. It arrived hair shaving sharp, in perfect condition. It smacks right through smaller pieces of wood, wet or dry. I got mine on sale for $36. YOU CANNOT TOUCH THIS PERFORMANCE on any other hatchet in this price point.if you need a hatchet that you can give to your kids and their kids, estwing is the no brainer choice. Made in the USA of proper tool steel. Their 1055 is TOUGH, and easy to resharpen. Stoked to take it camping here in Colorado with my new cold steel trail boss.

bought this to have it mounted in my truck and be able to use while I'm out camping. i like the fact that there is options for colors on the handle and the quality feels great. works great on using in to take out the steaks

This is a good little hatchet for camp chores. Its all-steel construction makes it heavier than some other hatchets of this size, so it may not be the best choice for backpacking. However, the extra weight seems to help it when splitting firewood. The rubber grip also helps dampen shock during use, which makes it much more comfortable when using it for long periods of time. Out of the box, it appeared to be well made, but the edge definitely needed some work. After sharpening, it chops well enough, splits well enough and drives tent stakes well enough to earn its keep in camp. It's also still made in the USA.

Substantial weight and quite sharp. Should be perfect for my needs and a great value.

Very good axe, made of good material, should last a lifetime with proper care

Excellent quality tool

The axe came sharp enough for practical use if you intend to split small logs for firewood or need to get some pesky saplings out of your way, but the steel used is susceptible to damage easily if not sharpened enough to take on hardwoods. I had the unfortunate experience to encounter galvanized steel nails in a small log I meant to chop for the winter, but the damage isn't so bad that it can't be worked out on coarse stones. I'm using it for the purposes I've listed above, but I don't believe this to be practical for downing a tree bigger than, say, 16 inches across without needing to sharpen the blade again, just take care as the powder coating comes off if you don't have good sharpening technique. Would NOT recommend for sport throwing as the handle is likely to make it rebound if you're a novice and the balance makes it a bit more handle-heavy. Overall it's easy to handle, fairly durable (if you're observant unlike me), and makes for a great alternative to a wood handle hand axe if you want something you can take on a short camping/hiking trip. Great gift for that boy scout, if you're looking.

Tutto quello che ci si aspetta in più arriva veramente affilata, per la fretta di dare un occhiata togliendola dal fodero quasi mi tagliavo... quindi ottimo!

Apart from the fact it has manufacturing defects such as paint bubbles and not very sharp, its an amazing axe design with good shock dampening handle.

Gift for my husband who has been looking every where for a replacemnt of the one he lost.He was very happy with it

El acero se siente de calidad y el mango es increíble, se nota que amortigua muy bien los golpes y no se resbala para nada.

Verarbeitung schlecht sowie Rost an manchen stellen. Ging sofort wieder zurück! Für diese. Preis habe ich mir was anderes erwartet...
