Would get 5 stars if fully sharpened and with guards/blades. On the other hand, this is a well-made, well-balanced American-made instrument that feels good in the hand. Rigger Axes are not common anymore, but in my opinion they are the most useful example.
Well built, properly tempered product. Identical to what I used as a carpenter in the 80's, except mine doesn't have a straight grip curve. Fixed it in 10 minutes with the new "California Frame Handle" and you're good to go. These things are perfect for 1x2 fire paths since you can cut them with an axe. Worth every penny, as are ALL instruments made in the USA.
