Fiskars Axe
« on: February 22, 2012, 08:08:14 AM »

I just went to Sears and picked up a Fiskars Pro Splitter Axe and this thing is awesome! I really wanted the X27 which is a little bit longer but this one will do for now.  If you haven't ever seen these axe's before look them up on YouTube.  They only weigh 4 lbs and split like a 10 lb maul.  I'm impressed!  :thumbup:

I was cutting on a huge oak tree this weekend that has been down for atleast 3 years.  My buddy was using his log splitter and I had my Fiskars axe.  I was splitting 1-1 1/2 ft diameter logs in one swing easily with no effort.  Man I love this thing!

I just watched some videos of the Fiskars Axe and I'm going to get me one of this. What an awesome product. I have one the Fiskars Pruning Shears and they work great!

I also seen the videos on YouTube and went to walmart the next day and bought the x27. The thing is a splitting beast and is very lightweight and comfortable. Great axe

I going to order the Super Splitting Axe this week. It's the same as the X27 only all black without the orange non slip grip. Got one in for somebody last week, and it felt really nice. Going to find out for myself if it really is worth the extra money over a standard 6lb maul.

Love my Fiskars. I have 2 the x25 and the x27. Bought the x25 first as it was all they had at my Walmart used it for about 6 months but felt it was a little to short. Found the x27 and now I just keep the little x25 on the four wheeler for those times I need  a splitter in the field.

I am not sure what the difference is in the Pro Splitter and the x25, but I feel that mine is too short too.  I would like to buy a x27 but I have a splitter now so I really don't have a need for one anymore.

A lot of the time it is less work to just split by hand than to get the wood to the splitter.
