Customer Reviews

Camping with it is great it is heavy enough to really chop wood but not as bulky as a full axe. Kevin Willis  |  17 reviewers made a similar statement

Works great to limb a tree or split wood. B. Dohoney  |  17 reviewers made a similar statement

5.0 out of 5 stars Made in the USA January 29, 2010
It's an Estwing, what's not to like!? It's big enough for most camping functions (i.e. "shaving" logs for kindling, de-branching, etc.) but it's also not overly-big. It's got a great heft, good scabbard, is extremely durable, and holds a great edge. This is actually the same small axe my dad purchased (and still uses) in the late 80s! If you're looking for a small camp axe that will satisfy all your minor logging needs, get this great, American made piece of hardware.

The perfect camp axe. I looked at a lot of different options. I decided on this because it is a hammer for my tent stakes and an axe for fire wood. (Glad I did). I have used various types of Estwing tools while working in the field of construction (Concrete Forms and Mountain-Stabilization). They have never failed me and there is a life time warranty on their products. They are nearly indestructible. I recently used this product while camping this last weekend. I am very impressed with the ease of removing limbs and cleaving through wood. Also the hammer end works like a charm busting through dried up wood for the fire. This axe will live on long after I am gone. Also the 16" handle is nice for the extra force you can get with minimal effort. A must for anyone who only wants to buy one camp axe during their life time. =)

5.0 out of 5 stars Handy and perfect logging tool September 7, 2008
Great tool for the logger. I fasten this axe to my harness along with my wedge pouch, logger's tape, file and saw wrench. With this axe I can wedge very large trees over without having to carry around a bulky sledge or larger axe. It is also very handy for trimming small limbs off the felled trees as I'm measuring the tree for logs.

It is superbly built, very strong and handles all the abuse I give without bending, breaking or falling apart.

When I ordered this I expected something more like a hatchet than an axe. This falls somewhere between a boy's axe and a hatchet. `It's neither one or the other. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars It's American quality - Made in USA.
Not the best finish but it holds an edge well and has pretty good feel. The handle absorbs impact and vibration well and is big enough to get two hands on if you need to. Read more
