5 Stars
Good sharp axe.
This axe is made of high quality steel. It came pretty sharp right out of the box, sharp enough to cut a finger. But I sharpened it much much more then how it came. I sharpened it all the way up to about 200,000 grit with diamond spray on a leather strop and now its like a large razor blade that will cut through things very easily. It was very easy to sharpen too, if you try to sharpen it you have to hold it at a very flat angle. If it is difficult for you to find a flat angle to sharpen it at just draw a 1/8 inch thick line across the sharp edge and make sure you are sharpening the marker off. Do this for every different grit you use to sharpen the axe. If you don't you will just round over the sharp edge and you wont get it too sharp that way. This axe also seems like it will have good edge retention I don't know if it is because the steel is hard or whatever, but something makes me feel like it will hold a sharp edge for a long time. I also attached a lanyard with a noose knot to the lanyard hole in the bottom of the handle right above the pry bar that this axe has. It's good to have a lanyard just in case you get knocked out in a fight that way the axe will still be attached to your hand when you wake up. Or if you loose your grip while swinging it too so it won't go flying off and hit something you don't want hit. The pry bar seems to be OK. The V tapers down to a fairly sharp point so it would make for a pretty good nail puller or even a door entry tool. The MILWAUKEE utility knife above the axe is also a great buy. Perfect hand feel with a pocket clip and an arm that slides out of the handle for a extra blade storage.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but the bulky handle wasn't for me.
Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2015
First impressions after just receiving it. It feels great and feels sturdy. It chops great and it's not bulky. I bought it with the intention of taking the bulky handle off and wrapping it in para cord. Ontario knives makes a similar one with the para cord but with a much higher price. If that's your intentions know that the handle is not really removable. It does have 6 screws and a lanyard hole that has a solid rivet through the handle. So it did take some prying to get the handle off and it likely voids the warranty. I did it anyway because that's why I bought it and I attached a pic so that you can see what that looks like. It gives it a thinner profile and emergency para cord. Also, the sheath does not keep the hatchet secure. First time using it, it fell out while running twice. So I got creative and attached a toggle button to secure it. See the attached pictures.
