I absolutely love it. Feels great in my hand. I was not happy when it arrived dull. Contacted customer service and they said it was shipped full so each person could sharpen it the way they like. Made sense to me. It sharpened right up and holds an amazing edge. Love it.
Good value, great looks but a little thick around the blade edge. I've reprofiled the edge and managed to get a decent convex so it will do the job fairly nicely.
The wood on the handle I find is quite soft and prone to chips and damage when coming in contact with the wood I'm splitting. But that could just be me trying to bite off more than I can chew with the log size.
Overall I think it's a sweet little axe at for the price.
Poor head geometry, and subpar hang. I have better axes that I got for better prices, even after I reprofiled the head on the CRKT. It is beautiful, but overall a better wall-hanger than a functional piece. The head will come loose after only a handful of strikes. My recommendation is to avoid it.
Good product for the price. The bevel was different angles on each side and inconsistent down the entire length of the edge. Additionally, the head started to wobble on the handle after limbing two small pine trees.
Arrived in excellent shape, sharp enough to damage yourself if you aren't careful and used to handling an ax. I use it frequently of processing kindling and some small tress and limbs. Its well made, not a Prandi or Danish ax, but its also not several hundred dollars for small camp ax. Its tough and does its job with no frills.
