I have not used it (IE packing it into the backcountry) much but so far it seems solidly built. Needs a little sharpening out of the package but that is not unreasonable. I love the classic styling and cost.

It’s junk, I could get a better quality axe at Walmart for $10. Literally missing a chunk on metal at the bottom of the eye near handle. The grinds if you could call them that look like the were done with an old chimney brick.the finish grinds where I assume spurs or flashing was cut off are kind of ground. Like some one drug a rusty old file over them and said good enough for this fella across the pond easy $100 for them. Less than one star

This is a good all-purpose axe, with a curved, lightly varnished 24” hickory wood handle. When evaluating an axe, hickory and ash are the best choices for a handle, and you want the wood grain to run lengthwise, as it does on this axe. The rings on the end of the axe should be narrow and tight; it makes the handle less likely to split. This axe has decently narrow rings. The handle feels good and is easy to grip; purists will say varnish can make a handle slippery, but this felt fine to me. The head is made of 1.5 lbs of hand-forged steel, with a tempered edge. (You want at least the cutting edge to be tempered because this makes it less brittle.) The head is attached with a steel and wooden wedge. The whole axe only weighs 3lbs, and this combined with the relatively short and controllable length of the handle makes it a good choice for beginners, as well as for those who want an easy-to-handle tool for smaller jobs. The blade is sharp and it made short work of some smaller pieces of downed wood I tested it on. This will be great for splitting firewood for camping, including making kindling. I felt the axe to be well proportioned and easy to swing with sufficient force. I appreciated the included compact leather sheath; it covers the cutting edge and is small enough to put in my pocket while I work so I don’t risk losing it/leaving it behind as I have done with larger ones in the past. All in all, I’m really happy with this axe and I look forward to using it for many years to come.

This is a decent axe for the price. I bought my husband for Christmas a couple years ago a Gränsfors Bruks foresters awe. They are an amazing axe but you feel it in the pocketbook! This axe is not of that caliber but it is a fraction of the cost. For someone who is utilizing it for a camping trip or cleaning up the yard or clearing trails it’s totally sufficient. I ordered it for him to use on the trap line because he may need to chop out tree roots or chip out frozen turf for a set. He obviously doesn’t want to use his high end axe for such tasks. This Forester woodsman axe is perfect for this purpose. The finish on the head is a bit unclean but this is just a visual impairment. The edge is sharp. We have not been able to test its ability to hold the edge yet. The handle has nice lines and a bit glossy on the finish which we will sand off and replace with an oil/wax treatment. The finish will wear off with use and it can become slippery with snow. We cut and chopped 10-15 cords of firewood a year. We live in a very cold climate in northern Minnesota. We use axes and mauls all the time. I would order this axe again but it is not available to compete with our Gränsfors axe in quality. That said, it’s a good all purpose axe and I believe it will fit the needs of most folks looking for a good multi purpose tool.

This forster axe would not cut melted butter. It is not hand forged but drop forged (hot metal poured into a mold). Not what I expected for the price. Crude casting and is not swedish steel. (I hand forge custom knives from logging cable.)

I have many, many axes. Bought this for my nephew to help work with me on my farm. I expect to sharpen all new axes. The bit was blunt and chipped. As I worked to sharpen I realized the blade swoops to the left. The heel and the toe are not aligned with the handle. The eye is off center which cants the handle to the right like a hewing axe. Head is not hand forged in India as advertised. Packaged doesn't say hand forged it states hand ground. I was not expecting a Gransfors or HB axe, but for eighty dollars I would have been much better off with a Council Tool boys axe.
