Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was a Boy Scout leader, and once spent five hours in a far away hospital Emergency Room with a lad who was injured by unsafe blade use. I'm sure you don't want that to happen to you.
You won't encounter a loose hatchet head on this baby because the head and shaft are forged of one piece of fine steel.
Its effective handle design of leather washers over a steel shaft is safe, comfortable, and cushioned.
There also is a `hammer' tool at the `pal'l of the hatchet, My older version has a nail puller notch at the `back' of the blade, but the new-fangled ones do not.
The Estwing hatchet is not heavy, nor is it designed for heavy work. The Boy Scouts of America recommend you saw any piece of wood larger than the diameter of your arm instead of chopping with an axe or hatchet.
The boys in our Scout Troop always borrowed my personal Estwing to cut kindling because it is light and well-balanced. . It is less likely to cause arm fatigue from extended use than a heavier, wooden-handled hatchet.
Its blade is thinner than most hatchets and its head is tapered, making it very easy to sharpen. My Diafold Double Sided, Fine-Coarse (DMFWFC)sharpener makes quick work of any dull blade, the Estwing's notwithstanding.
I really, really like this tool. It is great for Outdooors use and also comes in handy on construction/destruction projects around the house.
Take good care of it, and your grand kids will be using it on their own childrens' campouts.
