Review on Fiskars 375581-1001 Chopping Axe: 28-Inch Black, Premium Quality by Rob Bradford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great mid-sized grinder! A lightweight. Excellent control. Rigid construction. Sharp from the factory. Outstanding guarantee.

Last shirt was a traditional ax with a slightly longer wooden handle, the traces of which have long since faded. Tired of looking for a similar grip that wasn't made for kids, I ordered one when I saw Amazon had a lightning deal as our Fiskars 36" splitter held up very well. I'm beginning to understand how Fiskars can offer a lifetime guarantee on a product that can withstand the same pressure as an axe. The design is so simple yet incredibly effective, no doubt cheap to manufacture but surprisingly strong. And they're a lot sharper than an ax out of the box. traditional axes. Wearing leather gloves to keep the plastic handle from slipping out of sweaty palms, the ax feels even more ergonomic than our 36-inch Fiskars cleaver and is as expected light. The 28" handle felt a bit short at first, but quickly adjusted and offers fantastic control when chopping smaller diameters: logs too big for an ax or knife, but too small or dry for a cleaver or long one handle are. Axe. I can rock this thing all day without getting tired. And it actually came from Amazon with a protective plastic storage handle, unlike the last Fiskars ax I ordered from Target which only came with a disposable blade sheath.

Pros
  • Lifetime guarantee
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
