Description

The all-purpose design of the X15 Chopping Axe makes felling trees quick and easy. Like every X-Series Hatchet or Axe, the X15 combines perfected weight distribution, advanced blade geometry, an ultra- sharp edge and virtually unbreakable design to maximize your performance. This combination of features allows the blade to bite deeper when chopping. With more blade penetration on each swing, you can chop more wood in less time, with less effort and hand strain. Easier to swing, lets you land the head exactly where you want it. Plus, the hardened steel blade starts out sharp, stubbornly holds its edge, and chews quickly through flinty heartwood with help from the friction-reducing non-stick coating. Better still, Fiskars cures the dangerous problem of loosening axe heads with an insert-molded design locks the blade in place so it won't ever unhitch itself from the durable, weatherproof handle. Includes a sturdy sheath for safe storage and transportation. And the Fiskars lifetime warranty of performance excellence. From the Manufacturer An unwieldy, oversized axe tends to make its user a little nervous - nothing like the thought of an emergency room visit to suck the fun out of felling and limbing trees, eh? That's why Fiskars has designed this chopping axe (Fiskars Chopping Axe 23.5-Inch 7857) with a shorter, more controllable 23-1/2-inch handle. Easier to swing, lets you land the head exactly where you want it. Plus, the hardened steel blade starts out sharp, stubbornly holds its edge, and chews quickly through flinty heartwood with help from the friction-reducing non-stick coating. Better still, Fiskars cures the dangerous problem of loosening axe heads with an insert-molded design locks the blade in place so it won't ever unhitch itself from the durable, weatherproof handle. Includes a sturdy sheath for safe storage and transportation. And the Fiskars lifetime warranty of performance excellence.

  • Glad I picked the proper one
Style: 24" Chopping Axe
Considered many hatchet/axe options on Amazon. From $10 to $60. Bought Fiskars X15 Axe based on reviews and reputation. (I've been using the same Fiskars Lopper reliably for ten years - 100s of large branch cuts.) The Madrona tree (1460 on the Janka scale; Pine is 480; Oak is 1300) I needed to cut was difficult to access so I need to be equipped with a capable manual tool. Had I purchased anything less sharp/durable, it would have required two trips and I needed to avoid that. Tree was 9"x7.5" in diameter - I used the axe single handed and double handed - Tree was surprisingly tough...took me 20 minutes to get through it (I'm in my 60s and decent condition) Cuts were deep, balance was good, shock loads to arms hands were moderate. Edge still slices paper afterwards. See pics. This is a very nice tool - glad I made this choice. ... show more

  • Fantastic tool!
Style: 24" Chopping Axe
I put a lot of time researching this ax before finally making the purchase. After watching countless videos and reading many reviews, I couldn't help but think that this tool was going to be extraordinary. I was not at all disappointed. First off all, if you visit Fiskars website about this product [...], you will see that the use and purpose of this tool is not for splitting wood, but for felling trees. I have only felled trees with axes greater than 27 inches in length in the past, so I was fairly skeptical about using such a short felling ax. My skepticism was tamed when I took it up to my property in Idaho one weekend to clear some land of live and dead trees that needed to be chopped down. It didn't take much effort to swing this small ax, but I was very surprised to see how deep this cut with minimal effort. I didn't get worn out so quickly like I do when swinging a longer ax. I found that my endurance lasted much longer with this short handle than with a longer one. On top of being able to last longer and cut with such a sharp blade, my wife, who is 5' 2", was able to use this thing very well! It is a great product that both her and I are able to use and not compromise the ability to fell trees quickly. The blade on this maintained its edge very well, and it was not hard to keep sharp. I sharpened it regularly to keep its edge, but looking back, I didn't really need to. Another feature of which I was skeptical is the hollow handle. I thought that there would be a lot of vibration in the fiberglass handle while chopping, but it was just the opposite. there was no vibration, and the smooth handle had plenty of grip- even in sweaty hands-, but didn't give me blisters. This is a tool well worthy of five starts! I highly recommend this product from the most experienced to the least experienced. ... show more

  • Great Axe!
Style: 24" Chopping Axe
I use to split wood, (not tree stump type but like 1X's and 2x4's etc.) with an old butchers knife. I remember how much I enjoyed getting the wood ready for the barbecue. When I got the Fiskars axe I took it out side and started thrashing on an old stump. It did a good job of splitting and chopping the dried up stump. I then decided to split some scrap 2x8's for fire wood thinking about that old light butchers knife i used to use. That's when I made the mistake of under estimating the capabilities of this axe. Because of it's weight and sharpness it went slicing through the 2x8, missed the small piece of scrap wood underneath it and hit the metal part of my door mat. Stupid me. Anyway to make long story short I put a new edge on it and am much more careful with it. Since then I modified an old CLC ,leather, cordless drill holster to use for my axe. It works great, after I repositioned the belt loop by cutting it off and riveting back on, so the axe could hang vertical instead of at an angle. Also made a blade cover which can be used with or without the holster. I also made a well fitting "cap" for the end of the axe secured by paracord and a cord stop. I drilled a hole in the "cap" for the cord stop so it wouldn't get in the way. The reason for the cap was to contain a small fixed blade knife and a pre-formed sliding container made out of lite duty PVC. The PVC slides out and holds water proof matches, small flashlite/laser (for emergency signaling) and some band-aids. I don't know how practical all these mods. are but it sure was fun doing it. I'm thinking of getting a fiskars hatchet, maybe an 8 or 14" for the lite duty splitting jobs. No more butcher knives. ... show more
