Rated 5 out of 5 by from Axe to the max Brill piece of kit. Great value and extremely good.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Average axe good value The axe is a good weight and decent for the price. Blunt on collection so you will need to sharpen with a file and stone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice chopper This big axe looks and feels great. Well balanced and not too heavy. Should sort out a couple of tree roots for me no problem.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from How sharp is it? I agree with most of the reviews so don’t want to repeat. The first thing you do is to check how sharp it is it felt a bit blunt but I gave it a try on a large stump it was ok. I simply sharpened it up with a good quality file and it made a great difference now making better progress .just simply sharpen regularly to make jobs it easier.all in all a very good buy.

Not totally sure if this is more a felling/chopping axe or good for splitting ie like a maul?

Asked by: Aandy
Hello Aandy, According to the reviews this will fell and split. I hope this helps. Thank you using Q and A.JB

I'm trying to replace a 1.6kg axe and would like the same weight again. So is this axe head 3 1/2 lbs or is it 1.4 kg which is in fact only slightly over 3 lbs?

Asked by: CapitalTom
Hi Tom, The axe head for this product weighs just under 1.6kg so it seems that the 1.4kg listed is a typo. Sorry about that. Thank you for using Q&A.

Do you have to sharpen this axe or is it already sharpened? Could you recommend a tool for sharpening the blade? Thanks

Asked by: Saki
The axe does not come sharpened, you will need a tungsten carbide or diamond file to sharpen it before use.
