Fiskars X17 Splitting Axe, Tree Branch Cutter and Wood Splitter (23.5-Inch Axe) with Shock-Absorbing Handle

Product Description ------------------- X-Series axes combine innovative features for chopping axes that chop 3X deeper and splitting axes that offer more one-strike splits. All X-Series axes feature a smart design that distributes the majority of the weight to the axe head while keeping the stronger-than-steel FiberComp handle lightweight. This perfected weight distribution provides an optimal power-to-weight ratio that increases swing speed to multiply power, much like an aluminum baseball bat. X-Series axes give you more power at impact to help you get more done with every swing. X-Series Splitting Axes also include advanced bevel convex blade geometry that adds even more power and disperses wood from the blade for cleaner, one-strike splits. X-Series axes don't just outlast other axes--they're virtually impossible to break. A shock-absorbing FiberComp handle is lightweight yet stronger than steel, so it can't be broken through overstrike. The hardened, forged steel blade won't chip or crack, and the innovative PermaHead design is over-molded so the blade can't be separated from the handle. Like every X-Series Hatchet or Axe, the X17 combines perfected weight distribution, advanced blade geometry, an ultra-sharp edge and virtually unbreakable design to maximize your performance. .com ---- Make every swing your best with an axe designed for extreme performance. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unlike traditional axes that can be heavy, quick to dull and easy to break, X-Series axes combine perfected weight distribution, advanced blade geometry, an ultra-sharp edge and virtually unbreakable design to maximize your performance.

The hardened, forged steel blades also stay sharp longer than traditional axes, and a low-friction blade coating helps power through the tough logs and prevents the axe head from getting stuck. X-Series Splitting Axes also include advanced bevel convex blade geometry that adds even more power and disperses wood from the blade for cleaner, one-strike splits.

From drop-forged steel blade to weather-impervious FiberComp handle, this axe is perfectly sized and meticulously balanced for superior strike accuracy without sacrificing power. The shorter 23-1/2¿ handle suits smaller-framed users or anyone who wants an extra measure of control in their swing placement for a dead-on accuracy every time. A unique wedge-shaped blade maximizes splitting action, and the non-stick coating reduces friction, so it takes fewer swings to bust through even rock-hard, dry oak. The FiberComp fiberglass composite handle is many times stronger than traditional wood handles, yet it¿s also light in weight and impervious to weather. Plus, the insert molded design prevents the head from ever loosening or separating from the handle. Includes a sturdy sheath for safe storage and transportation. And, because it¿s a Fiskars axe, a lifetime warranty that cuts competitors¿ guarantees to ribbons. See more ( javascript:void(0) )
