5 out of 5 stars Happy camper   June 16, 2008
Joe Mcardle (Bethesda, Maryland United States)

If you are a woodworker, or anyone else accustom to receiving flawless tools, you may be slightly disappointed with this hatchet. The tool arrived sharp, but with a few imperfections in the cutting edge. However, 10 minutes of honing easily corrected the problem. The hatchet is well balanced, and cuts very well. The polished blade, leather handle, and decorated sheath make the Estwing hatchet a very handsome tool. I brought it on a camping trip a few weeks ago, and my fellow campers were very impressed with both its appearance and performance.


5 out of 5 stars Great, light hatchet   February 13, 2008

This hatchet works great, feels great in your hand and is very sharp. If you plan to own a hatchet that you will take reasonably good care of, this is the hatchet for you. With the handle construction being as beautiful and comfortable as it is I would be reluctant to throw it in the bottom of a tool box. Mine hasn't failed by any means but just looks too delicate for a rough, back of the pickup kind of life. br / br /I own several Estwing striking tools and have had great performance from every one of them.


5 out of 5 stars High Quality Tool!   December 1, 2007

I have and have used a wide variety of hand tools. I can tell you that this product is made of the highest quality, and will give you a lifetime of good service with minimal maintenance. Highly recommended.

I'm a Boy Scout leader, and once you spend five hours in a far away hospital Emergency Room with a lad who was injured by unsafe blade use, you don't want it to happen again. br / br /You won't encounter any loose hatchet heads on this baby because the head and shaft are forged of one piece of fine steel. br / br /Its effective handle design of leather washers over a steel shaft is safe, comfortable, and cushioned. br / br /There also is a `hammer' tool at the `pal'l of the hatchet, and a nail puller notch at the `back' of the blade br / br /The Estwing hatchet is not heavy, nor is it designed for heavy work. The Boy Scouts of America recommend any piece of wood larger than the diameter of your arm be sawn instead of chopped with an axe or hatchet. br / br /The boys in our Scout Troop are forever borrowing 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. br / br /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. br / br /I really, really like this tool. It is great for Outdooors use and also comes in handy on construction/destruction projects around the house. br / br /Take good care of it, and your grand kids will be using it on their childrens' campouts. br /
