Roughneck Traditional Hickory Handle Axe - 800g (1¾lbs) | Drop Forged, Heat Treated & Polished Steel with Protective Canvas Sheath

Stylish, well balanced, well made Axe. Beautifully finished axe head and well shaped, solid Hickory handle. Sharp enough straight out of the box. Very good value for money. My only reservation is that it comes with a rather cheap protective cover, which somewhat spoils the presentation. Still, the axe will certainly do the job, and that's what counts.

Absolutely gorgeous axe. Extremely well made from quality materials. Very sharp & cut wood, branches & stumps with ease.

Firstly, I really do love this axe. It was purchased as me and my two lads were off grid camping I needed to split some wood for a fire. I opted for the 0.8 kg version as at the time of purchase it was actually a little cheaper than 0.6 kg version. I think Eva would be perfectly fine, but for me I do feel I’ve got the right choice. Like most other it doesn’t come really sharp, but would be more than adequate for splitting logs, I did run a sharp stone before we went, and have invested a little bit more time sharpening on our return. It’s got a really lovely colour to the shaft. Are the comments have been plasticky, which I do not find at all and comments about the branding and labelling but this has already started to fade after light use. I do wish the sheath was a little bit looser as you would never be able to fit the axe into it if it was on your belt ( this is the reason for the four stars).

Great quality, good edge and good balance

Monster of a hatchet. Cut through some suborn wood with ease. Perfect weight and balance with the handle that just the right length to have the right swing radius. Handle looks like it made in Valhalla from the wood of Yggdrasil. Solid. This would also do well on the shield wall. :)

This is a quality tool. It feels sturdy and well made. The axe head is a bit heavier than most but the tool is well balanced and chops well. It is very sharp and his ideal for chopping firewood. I would definitely recommend it.

1. nice weight and balance, 2. sturdy construction with a nice shape to the handle, 3. axe head very professionally attached to the handle, 4. solid metal head, 5. nice hardwood handle. 6. with a fair bit of grinding and repurposing the head this axe could be used as a weapon rather than just wood chopper. 7. small enough to pack for wild camping but big enough to be useful. bad= 1. pathetic shape to the sharp edge needs totally redoing with a better grind, 2. needs some lindseed oil on the handle, 3. sheath is useless, fell apart before even using it which was expected at this price range. All in all very happy, love it for the price.

Good quality
