El hacha funciona bien pero tiene cosas buenas y malas, el martillo es super útil, es inoxidable con lluvias y humedad nada de óxido, el filo viene afilado pero no destaca por este, por lo que he visto y aprendido de filos el que utiliza este hacha es más resistente por lo que si le das sin querer a una piedra o algo así solo perderás filo pero a la hora de partir madera pierde mucho porque hace efecto "rebote" yo en mi caso le he hecho un vaciado al filo "tipo scandi" (lo cual recomiendo) y ahora parte todo enseguida pero si se lleva un golpe al filo se mellara o romperá, por otra parte es cierto que se puede hacer fuego con ella pero hay que cogerlo con pinzas, si tú utilizas el lado designado con el símbolo del fuego al rascar el ferrocerio saca muy poca chispa pero es posible la cosa es que si está húmeda la zona va a ser casi imposible por lo que vas a tener que acabando el filo lo cual lo dañará, igualmente he de mencionar que cuando rompa la que tengo compraré otra sin dudarlo todas las otras hachas que tengo se han oxidado sin tocarlas y esta despues de años rinde igual de bien (no te heches a atras por los comentarios del filo porque todas en este rango de precio son iguales o peores)

The axe is quality. It's a fine compromise between a splitting axe and a chopping axe. It does both well enough. The ferro rod is a nice added value, but I never keep it in the axe handle.The major complaint is with the sheath. For starters, it's a total pain to both remove and insert the axe. You have to do it juuust right or else the blade won't go in or come out. And last, as you can see by the pictures, the axe shifts around in the sheath. In fact, the axe naturally wants to lay in the sheath in such a way so that tha tip of the blade sticks out above the sheath, which is super dangerous. I could easily cut our gouge myself at worst. And at best, could tear my shirt or other gear. Several times my arm would catch the blade. I'm lucky I didn't cut myself.So, all in all, be prepared to make your own sheath. Schrade really should fix this design. It's a liability.

I was hesitant because I read some comments about people who used their hatchet/axe once and the steel chipped. I also assumed that, since majority of comments were positive, these were a select few with defects. I still don't know if this is true, but the hatchet I got is AMAZING.I took it camping this last weekend to try it out. It came out of the box sharp and ready to use, and the sharpening stone that comes with it is a bit soft but I think it kind of helps put a nice edge on it. I used the stone after a few strikes and got the edge even sharper than it had come, pretty quickly. It feels well built, stood up to a weekend of chopping all different hardness of wood.The large ferro rod that comes with it works perfectly and is a nice size compared to ferro rods that come with "survival" gear. Most of those smaller ferro rods are really only good for dire situations. The rod that comes with this axe (pull the string at the bottom of the hatchet handle) is nice size (good for when you need to use the axe to spark it) and reminds me of the rods you would buy separately.The rubberized handle makes this axe very comfortable to use, especially with a nice pair of fingerless gloves. It's big enough to use as an axe when needed, small enough to carry in your pack for an everyday hatchet, and strong enough for whatever you may have to put it through.If you are looking for a hatchet that you'll need for daily use, this might not be the best option. Not because it doesn't hold up well, but because it doesn't seem to be made for such use. It will last much longer and be put to better use for those who need it for occasions (camping, hunting, backpacking, etc).As for me, I love it and it's perfect for what I need it for. I'll update after a few more uses.

This is the best price for this hatchet on any website or any store I could find for a Canadian delivery.The hatchet comes very sharp and has a sharpening puck with a fine and coarse grit. The flint stick is VERY secure in the handle - there is no way I could get it to come loose while using the hatchet, period. And the flint stick is large and will last a long time. The knurled hammer end is great for putting in tent pegs, heck if you wash the thing you can use it as a meat tenderizer. In actual use I think you too will prefer it over most hatchets where the hammer end is smooth.This hatchet is on the heavier end if one is going on a long hike, but the way I see it is that the longer the hike the greater the risks in the bush/mountains which means you need to have a very good firewood processing tool, and nothing will beat this Shrade SCAXE2L. Do a search for reviews on it on Youtube and you will see how great it is.

I'm very impressed with this hatchet! After watching around 30 youtube videos in the search for a large campsite hatchet I settled on this model. I decided to purchase the Schrade SCAXE2L over the smaller model as I wanted something with more force behind it and felt that the longer handle would provide the extra oomph to cut through 2" limbs with ease. The hatched arrived well packaged and very sharp. It's easily sharp enough to whittle wood as you'd do with a knife. The grind looked very centered and the coating seems very durable. The handle is comfortable and the angle of the grip seems to work well. It's not overly grippy or rough and if I was going to be using it a lot in hot weather where sweat might be an issue I might want to wrap it with athletic tape, or a sandpaper like grip.Last weekend when my wife asked that I cut down a tree that had lost the top 1/2 of it's branches in a recent storm I grabbed this hatchet to do the job. I realize it's not an Axe, but the tree that I was cutting down was roughly 8 inches at the base and only about 25 feet tall. While still alive it was covered with vines, didn't look very healthy and was shading part of our garden. It did take a few minutes to cut through the base to drop the tree. I laid it between our fence and another tree and was glad that this hatched provided me with the control to cut a notch with enough precision that I was able to place it in the three foot gap between them. Once down, I used the stump and a cutting block and cut off all the limbs and then split them into two foot sections. The hatchet was excellent for this. I placed limbs up to 2 inches in diameter and with one quick swing the were cut in two. I was surprised at how the weight and sharpness of this hatchet made quick work of this task compared to sawing them off or using another tool. After cutting the limbs I stripped the bark of the 20 foot section of the tree for use in another project. When choked up this axe can perform some very knife like tasks which was also a surprise. The coating was mostly pristine after this 45 minute test of the axe. There was only one slide scratch along the face of the blade. I checked the sharpness compared to unboxing and to my surprise it was just as sharp with no dulling, no edge rolling and no chipping.My only concern long term is how the axe head is enclosed within the polymer handle. If struck hard enough I am concerned that it might break and cause the axe head to become loose. After using it and striking the polymer a few times, my concern for this has been greatly reduced. I believe it's strong enough to hold up over the long term but will post a follow up if it doesn't.I purchased this item and received nothing for this review. In fact I was so impressed that I've recommended it to a few friends and have sold at least three more based on my description of it's performance.

Ich habe eine preiswerte robuste Axt für einen kleinen Hausgarten und zum Campen gesucht .. und bekommen. Kleine Bäume umhacken oder dicke Äste abschlagen funktioniert ohne Problem und ist einfach viel cooler als es zu sägen. Auch das hämmern mit der Rückseite klappt super ich habe zwei Pfosten für einen frisch gepflanzten Baum in die Erde geschlagen und hat super geklappt. Der Griff ist in sehr griffig und auch nass kein bisschen rutschig. Der Wetzstein ist klein und robust also kann man ihn problemlos mitnehmen, er ist zwar sehr grob aber falls man unterwegs mal nachschleifen muss, weil man aus versehen einen Stein trifft oder was auch immer, bekommt man die Axt wieder scharf. Der Feuerstahl ist vielleicht ganz gut wenn man zum Camping geht oder so. Hat für mich aber keinen wirklichen Nutzen, weil ich Feuerzeuge/Streichhölzer dabei habe, stört aber auch nicht. Einen Stern Abzug, weil die Axt manchmal in der Nylonscheide hängen bleibt, wenn man sie nicht ganz langsam und genau rauszieht, ich denke dieses Problem löst sich von selbst, wenn sich das Nylon ein bisschen dehnt.Zum Campen und für kleine Gärten sehr zu empfehlen. Für professionelle Holzfäller gibt es besser alternativen denk ich.

Great axe, very sharp and blade protected by a good robust sheath. Well made and flint in handle is a nice touch. Would recommend to anyone intending to use for tree felling etc.Arrived ahead of schedule.

I'm glad I got the long version, at least for what I use it for. My primary use is for chopping firewood that's already been split in to halves or quarters, like the kind you have to buy at state parks. I have longer, stronger, arms so this size is as small as I would go. I use it exclusively one handed. I also leave it in my tiny camping trailer, so the stainless steel, titanium coating, and polymer/glass handle are perfect.Good weightSolid buildLow maintenanceThe axe head does not loosen (the hole in the top area helps accomplish this)Decent sheathThe fire steel is good qualityIf you jam it up far in to the handle the fire rod won't pop outThe steel used in the head is softer but it sharpens easilyThe sharpening stone is OK but it's also quite softI'd say it's a really good starter axe. You may not need a better one, but if you do, you won't regret getting this one as a utility axe.
