Review: Quality hand axe ideal for kindling - Fantastic little axe which I use for chopping/splitting my waste wood/pallet wood, for kindling. Easy on the hand & weighted well. Nice & sharp and does the job well. A quality small axe to make your life easier.
Review: Fantastic little powerful axe - I bought this after much mooching around the interweb. I needed a hand axe to climb inside a few trees and make some big branches safe. I already knew Fiskers as an amazing brand and I was specifically looking at a Fiskers axe. . . I'll say from the get go that this is a small-ish axe but it can easily manage bigger jobs than it's designed for! Some specs. . . - Fiskers have been going for hundreds of years - made in Finland - amazing quality - Just over 9 inches long - 480g - Fibre glass reinforced plastic handle in the classic Fiskars orange - Steel very sharp axe head - Safety sheath included I've added a few pics at the end of the blurb. . . Do not let the 480g/plastic handle put you off. The handle is very well designed and manufactured and super robust. No way it's going to break in normal use. As for the weight - it's absolutely spot on for what it is - a camping axe. Perfect to throw in a rucksack for outdoor use as well as for around the garden. In use. . . Brilliant! I knew it would be the second I got hold of it. It feels great and well balanced in the hand. It has a very nice 'swing' to it too! Small but powerful. The edge is very sharp upon delivery so it's ready to go out the box! Today I've started cleaning one of my 25 years old 40ft conifers up. There's s few big branches hanging out and bouncing around in the wind. They need to come off. I've been up inside the tree and stratigically removed quite a bit of the tree with this axe. Some branches were 4-6 inches thick. It took me only two minutes of chopping to remove the 6 inch ones. I didn't have to swing like a maniac either. Nice firm swings placed precisely made light work of the job. Thanks to the sharp edge. All this wood will not go to waste as I've started stripping them down and making kindle/firewood using the axe. We'll have a few good fires - nice food and a few beers thanks to it! I honestly have no negative issues with this one. A really good little axe. Definitely a keeper 🧡 Thanks for reading 👍🏼

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why not add measurements into uk feet and inches ?   please**
A: The only imperial measurement of distance still in common use within the United Kingdom is the mile. Probably won't be much use on the dimensions of the axe. Also worth noting there are only 3 countries world wide not on the metric system. 

Alternatively there's this new post metrication thing called the Internet. A quick search would answer all those your questions.

**Q: Will this take and hold a proper sharp edge for cutting thin kindling?**
A: Hi,  I have only had the axe for a few months but so far it has stayed sharp but I have bought the Fiskars sharpening tool with it and it seems to work well.  I use the axe for making kindling and its great so far.  I am using it a lot at the moment as I have bought an old unmaintained house which even has self seeded trees in the flowerbeds.

**Q: Is the back of this axe designed to be used as a hammer??**
A: No. The back of this axe has a forging ridge on the back. I have one and would never use this axe (or any other axe) as a hammer.

**Q: Does this come with a sheath as I intend to take it wild camping.**
A: Yes. The plastic packaging also acts as a sheath. A clever but simple design although it does make the overall footprint a bit bigger. You can see it in the photos.
