#firewood #fiskars - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Just a little story from me, I was hammering on my X27 with a sledge, using it for a wedge, I miss hit the head and broke the handle, 10000% my fault, I shot Fiskars an email, let them know exactly how I broke the axe and how much I loved splitting with it, they sent me a brand new one! Kick ass company, I own 4 Fiskars axes now lol
Yup, great products from a great company!
I’ve been splitting firewood for personal use for 45 years, of that 45 years, 40 of it was by hand with wedges, or every kind of splitting maul you could imagine. After watching your video I ordered a Fiskars X 27 off Amazon. I opened up the box and my first thought was, it was odd weighted as the handles was very light compared to the head. I took a piece of wood 10 inches across with a crotch and after three swings, I had four pieces of wood, easy Peezy. Best splitting mall I’ve ever used. Thank you for the video.
That is great! I had the same thing happen to me too...best splitting axe/maul made in my opinion!
Had the Fiskars X27 for 5 years now and just got the Fiskars splitting mail/demolition maul they call it on some countries and they’re a great combo.
Highly recommend to all whether professional or amateur
Please review the halder simplex spilling axe? @@InTheWoodyard
Bought the X27 for my first bash at splitting wood. It's very forgiving for a learner like me and I got through a lot of tough rounds (30+ inch knotty jobbies!) It's also made me completely fall in love with splitting wood. The noise, the exercise, the satisfaction. It's like soul food for me. I adore that axe!
Yup, splitting wood is great fun!
Same bro’. Same
No better WORKout than splitting and shoveling.
I bought the X27 about a year ago after watching you and Tony talk about the Fiskars line up. I love using that axe so much I haven't touch the old ones. Fantastic product!!
Great to hear!
I have the smaller for kinderling had it for 14 years still going strong left outside in the weather in that time. Ended up buying the 27 and the splitter one they are the best axes I have used I'm enjoying your content 👍
Good to know! Thanks for the info and for watching!
Thanks for taking the time to create this video. Very helpful. 👍❤️
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!
Fantastic video. My son wants to get a splitting ax and I started doing some research for him and found your video. This is the best video and demo I have found by far. Thank you. I may buy myself one as well!
Very cool, axe work is great exercise!
I like the x27 and my hookaroon!! I used old mails, now the x27 is my go to tool. Thanks for the explanation of them!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks, you too!
This is something people are always asking me to compare, great video
thanks for watching!
I'm buying one today, I just started doing firewood a few days ago and have redone my dad's old axe but the damage argument is valid thanks for the help and information.
Good luck! Thanks for watching!
Bought my x 27 back in January never looking back. There have only been a handful that were too knotty to split, so out comes the saw. Great axe. I bought mine after seeing your video with Tony about the fiskar tools.
That is great!
I'm 5'8" and the X25 is absolutely perfect. I have a hydraulic for my larger loads, but the 25 is the bomb with a small load, and I truly enjoy using it. I don't sell. I go through about 2 full cords every season, and try to stay about 2 years ahead with mostly red oak and ash. I hate to burn cherry or hard maple, because I feel that those two belong on fine furniture. Love your shows as both educational and entertaining. Thanks for all the great tips, and keep on choppin'.
Thanks so much for watching Alfred!!
Over a 5 Yrs... I have replace and added to my Fiskar axe and garden tools. I'm with you Chris, I absolutely luv splitting and cutting wood
Thanks for sharing!!!
I'm completely new to all this, I have a granfors bruks forest axe and it's OK for 6" birch rounds. This however looks amazing, I think I'll buy one. Gonna look to see if there's any videos on how to swing an axe. Thanks for taking the time to make this video
Go for it. Just star swinging and you will figure it out!
Thank you so much. I’m planning on getting the x27
You will like it!
Love your channel. I have every size of axes and mauls that Fiskars makes. In my opinion the X27 is for taller people; 6’ or taller. I am 5’8” on a good day. My go to is the X25. If I do need some extra power, I will use the X27. Like you said they are all good. Keep up the great videos and thank you.
Thanks for watching Craig!
G’morning Chris. Great information, thanks for sharing ! I’ve been thinking about the X27 as my 6 lb. maul starts to hurt my shoulder, now I know !
GoodNightIrene
Good luck! You will like one for sure!
Have both x25 hangs out next to wood pile all winter and with splitter rest of the year. And My x27 follows my chainsaws around great for splitting large rounds for transport. They both work awesome.
Yup sounds great!
Thank you for this review. I just order an X25 and, after seeing the performance on your video, I'm excited to get to work with it.
They make good stuff!
X25 GANNNNGGG!
I have 3 Fiskars products 2 axes and 1 maul. The x25 was the 1st o e I got used and just like others is too short for me. So I used it as a wedge with a handle..
All 3 live in the truck and are with me on job site.. nice review Chris 😁👍
Cool! Thanks D man!
Recently picked up the X27. In the end I was similar to you... for the extra $10-15 it just makes sense. I also have the X11 which is great for camping etc.
Yup, the x27 is better for me.
Thanks so much. My son is becoming an arborist and wanted an axe for Christmas. This video made my decision.
That is awesome! Thanks for watching!
The hatchet is awesome too !!
COOL!
Ive used a fiskars hammer for about a year now. The pommel swell with that orange grip is what does it for me. Saves the day when that fatigue kicks in.
Yup, it does help!
They are both GREAT splitting axes! Have both and like both. Started with the x27 and agree you can get more speed with it. I use the x25 because I'm 5'- 9" tall and they say the x27 is better for people 6' and taller. My kids use the x27 because they're 6' tall. I've been splitting for 45 years and had every kind of maul; Fiskars is the best!!
I'm 5'7 and I was worried when I bought the x27. I thought it would be way to long... it's actually a nice length. Only thing I can think of is may e its because I normally split on the ground or maybe because I played hockey growing up. But I have had zero complaints on length
Yup, they both work great!
Yup, it works great!
I used to split on the ground but lately cause of back injuries Ive gone to using a chopping block,bit slower but a lot less sharpening now days. Great video Chris. Cheers from Haumoana NZ
Yup, time and gravity eventually get us all!
Best axes I've seen you use. Beautiful heads.
Thanks!
I bought fiskars x25 last year and now i surprised myself x17. I wanted to an axe what i could use two or one hand. work with fiskars axes a pleasure. great video! Have a good work!
Yup, they make good stuff!
I absolutely love my X27. Ive got a Couple mauls, that I dont use anymore. I do have a Gransfors Bruks maul that I do like and use, but the axe that's on the wheeler day in and day out, is the X27, and my Plumb boys axe.
Yup, they just work good!
Great video. Have an X25 myself as I don't do a lot of manual splitting. Fan of the Fiskars tools here too. Have a good one Chris!
Thanks Tony!
I have Gransfors, Hults, Stanley, Craftsman, Wedges slegdes and mauls that have been in my family for several generations.. about a dozen years ago I purchased a Fiskars Super Splitter... a few years ago, the X27.. those two are the only two I swing anymore, 100% wood heat in our house. When I first got the Fiskars, I told my wood heat friends it changed splitting from a strength workout to an aerobic workout. About 99% of our wood is hardwoods, splitting hickory right now, two big walnut blowdowns in the woods are on deck..
Very interesting! I agree, the x27 is my most favorite one to use too!
Thank you! Great demonstration! I am a relative new comer. I bought both. Before watching your demonstration and review I was going to return the maul but after watching your video I have decided to keep it. My issue with it was the bounce back....but it depends how you wield it. Again... thanks!😅
Thanks for watching!
I like Fiskars (and Husqvarna chainsaws !) too. I own the X25 for woodsplitting and the X7 for backpacking (I also take with me the little Fiskars saw SW73). Cherry on the cake, Fiskars axes have here in France a 25 year warranty.
By the way, Fiskars axes are named after their weight in hundreds of grams (X7 for 0.7 kg, X11 for 1.1 kg, X27 for 2.7 kg...)
I see, good to know, thanks!!
@@InTheWoodyard How tall are you roughly, seems relevant for reach, swing etc.
You don't have a clue. They have a lifetime warranty worldwide and the X number is nothing to do with the weight 😂
@@leonardhpls6
Stupid smileys say a lot about a person's immaturity...
As for the naming of the products, that's what a salesman told me and, I just checked my local website, he's absolutely right. Here is what I read:
Merlin 2,7 kg - X27 - XXL
Merlin 2,5 kg - X25 - XL
Hache à fendre 2,1 kg - X21 - L
Hache à fendre 1,7 kg - X17 - M
Hache universelle 1,5 kg - X15
Hachette à fendre 1,1 kg - X11 - S
Hachette universelle 1 kg - X10 - S
Hachette universelle 700 g - X7 - XS
Hachette de camping 500 g - X5 - XXS
Don't count on me to give you a childish smiley.
@@leonardhpls6 You're the one who's misinformed. He's right. It's their weight designation.
I have the x27. I got it at Walmart probably 4-5 years ago they were on clearance in Sept which was kinda odd and it was $25. They had the mauls and other lengths too. Really like it. If they made one with a higher quality steel I would def buy another. I use mine a bit when splitting cherry especially stuff no bigger then say 14 inches. Can split it faster that way then my splitters. Cherry splits so nice. I split some of the smaller ash too with it but forget about the bigger pieces those go right on the splitter lol
Yup, I love cherry too!
I have a lot of Cherry and even though it's not the densest wood around (90% Red/White Oak, Shagbark Hickory, Elm and Black Cherry in my area) I prefer it over Hickory and especially Elm 🤮 It splits really nicely and it seems to season quite quickly too. White Oak is still my favorite though
Awesome review, discussion and demo on these axes 🪓!! I 💯 am a Fiskars fan (have been for years) and have picked up a few of their items like the picaroon, hatchet, X17 and a few types of their quality scissors! Tony’s reviews on Fiskars items are awesome as well! All awesome products! And you just can’t beat the lifetime warranty on all their products! Thanks for showcasing these axes today… I need to get an X27 for the fleet! Andrew from NB :)
Good choice! I like their stuff too!
They are definitely nice. I like the x27. The smaller one be good for banging wedges. Thanks for the chance to win. Have great day.
Thanks, you too!
I love my X27, I think the with the longer handle it is less likely than the x25 to hit your leg on a missed strike and hit the ground. I also have the Fiskars pickaroon which is awesome for picking up pieces from the ground or dragging them from the back of my pickup. I use an Estwing axe to help load rounds onto my splitter with out bending over, it holds the pieces with more control than the pickeroon,
Thanks for sharing, nice tools!
i must agree , Think cutting and splitting firewood is great exercise and enjoyable. I always feel better after making fire wood and am gonna buy a Friskars soon after seeing it in action
Sounds like a good plan!
Got a sharp little cheapass hatchet that I keep next to me while splitting with the Countyline 40 ton, for those little "hangers on".
Nice presentation. They have those "Fiskers" at Tractor Supply and I have been thinking about getting one.
If I were a game player I would guess (2).
And now it's Up, up and away to the woodyard where we definitely don't play games but have a lot of fun!
Have a grest day everyone, and KEEP PUSHING!!!
They are nice, give one a try!
Good day Chris, my first axe I have ever bought from Canadian Tire 6 years ago was a Fiskars x27. Still have it currently used regularly. My personal opinion a game changer in the axe department. I sent my number to your email would be a awesome birthday gift as it falls on this month. Keep my fingers crossed what better present then from the best wood channel I have been watching for the last 4 years . 👌🏻🔥🇨🇦
Thanks so much but I have only been doing videos on youtube for 2 years now, but a video every day for you might seem like a lifetime!! HA!
@@InTheWoodyard really I thought it’s been 4 years man time flies
You guys both have some great Chanel’s. I love TH-cam. I don’t even watch tv. Best thing is you can learn something on here not so much on tv.
Good review I like all of Fiskars products hammers to axes made in Finland quality products.
I was a bit hesitant at first but after trying their axes and hammers I was impressed at the end of the day it’s a tool that does the job.
Thanks, yup, they make good stuff!
Have the 8 lb maul and the X27, I've spoiled myself. Love these tools
Yup, nice stuff!
Man you have developed a Super high speed swing! I've seen much younger guys in Videos not swinging near your speed! Thanks for the Comparison Video!
Thanks for watching!
nice video and nice considerations, thank you.
Thanks for watching!
One thing I did notice, he had a lot less control after the split with the x25. Especially at 16:43. It seemed to come back toward his legs a lot in his demos especially that second chop. When he was splitting with the 27 the splitting axe went straight down into the wood, and he didn't have to control on the after swing to avoid hitting himself in the legs.
Yes the x25 was much harder to control. The x27 is my choice.
I was about to comment the same thing, I jumped a couple of times when Chris nearly lost a shin bone. I'm 5'8" and was thinking of getting an X25, but this has made my mind up to go for the X27. I suppose you should bend your knees on each strike to counteract the shorter length of the X25, but that's going to tire you quicker as well.
I use both an x25 and x27 I prefer the x25 I can swing more often and split faster I feel like I have more control with it, but I do agree the x27 has more power and is safer I use it on bigger uglier stuff, you can avoid a lot of the swinging into your leg by swinging it differently. Bring it straight down to the ground instead of a circular motion also spread your legs apart to the sides rathe than 1 in front and 1 in back.
Glad to find this review. I’ve been splitting with the FiskARS Isocore 8lb maul. It’s a beast, but I do get tired. Now tomorrow I get to buy an x27 an do my comparison.
You will be mad... that you did not get this one sooner. Keep splittin'!
X25 BABBBYYYYYY
I also have them both and even have the short 13-14 inch one. I mainly use them on the big logs I can't lift (I'm 6'2'' and 250lbs). I remove small bits just like you did until I can lift them to then go on the wood splitter.
Yup, good idea!
I noticed Nicole Coenen uses a Fiskars axe which led me to your channel. If she's not sponsored, she should be.
Awesome video. I think this was the video that sealed the deal for me. This will be the first axe I've ever bought for myself. I've always just used hand me downs.
Awesome, you will love it...get cuttin'!
Thanks for the review. I've seen these and was turned off by the handle material wrapping around the axe head but clearly it's not an issue! I agree Fiskars makes great products!
Give it a try!
If it comes apart (it won’t) just warranty it and get a new one.
Fantastic review! I have a bit of Fiskars addiction too.. 23" & 36" splitters, 17" & 28" choppers. Great combo 👌
Thanks! 👍
been using x21 for years and i bought x27 last week because i had to split some rounds over 50cm in diameter, love them both
nice!
Had my X27 for has to be 7+ years I think. I love the way the hollow handle puts all the weight in the head. I use it every year through winter splitting our wood down smaller for the fire. So that is like 12m3 a year with it and still going strong.
Nice, keep cuttin'!
I love my X21! Thinking about buying a larger Fiskars because (for unknown reasons) our firewood supplier seems to be providing much larger rounds this year. Maybe this might be helpful for someone reading - For larger rounds, I go around the edge taking off pieces. I feel that is a lot easier than taking a large round down the middle.
Yup, always take the edges off!!
Hi CHRIS very interesting l still split but a lot less but with Fiskar splitting maul the 8 pounder and the 27 great videos and very informative By the way very nice round house swing on that splitting with various other overhead swings.Good to see a young man such as yourself not letting atrophy set in.And you are absolutely right to keep moving that is the secret along of people don't want to do.We see people all over with no ganus .Why Remember that old expression move it or lose it Its absolutely true .Looking forward to the next one TTYL Cliff 👋
Thanks Cliff!
Hey Chris, I also have the X27 and I love it. I do all my splitting by hand, and I haven't had a better splitting axe before.
That is great Johannes!
Dont you get blisters from using x27? I do near the thumb area
I like Fiskars brand scissors, they also have a lifetime guarantee. I used to make rubber stamps and I used Fiskars spring load scissors to cut both rubber and polymer stamps from sheets of the rubber and polymer. I wore out several and lost the springs etc. I sent photos and made phone calls to the company, no problem, they sent replacement scissors at no cost to me. Fiskars are a great company and very easy to deal with when necessary..
Good to hear!
Love your videos, Greetings from The Emerald isle,🇨🇮🇨🇮 good tip is to remove the inner walls of abtruck,place in a level cement surface, fill tight with wood rings, get 2 levels in, and split away, keeps all the wood together,and no running after split wood, works great,👍👍
I meant truck tyre,
Thanks!
yup, got it!
Chris,
I watch video you produce. In fact, my 8 year old grandson watches with me and recognizes you by name. I have cut and split firewood for over 40 years since I don't own a mechanical splitter. I bought the X27 based on your video done with Tony. I works so much better than a traditional "Go Devil" (which is what we call a maul down here in the South). I am perplexed that you have not oner mentioned Tony in this video and since you guys seem to have shared a lot, I am hoping that you are still friends.
No worries David, we are still friends bit I am in my very busiest season in my business and Tony is busy with his new channel too, we will do some stuff again!!
Excellent test! I have an older version of that X25. As you mention, one great feature in Fiskars is that it is almost impossible to brake the handle. This enables also to twist the half split log open (carefully). You can't do that with an ax with a wooden handle. It will brake.
Have you tried splitting of logs inside a car tire? Don't need to pick logs around. Much much more productive. It is also safer for your legs. Tire stops ax's movement.
No, I have not........yet!
Loved this content
Thanks for watching!
These axes are well thought out. Good for splitting wood on the straight grain.
Yup, they just work good!
I prefer the 25 but same reason, when fiskars came out w splitting axes I could only find that size and consequently I got used to it. A rubber bungee cord can save you a ton of time on the straight grained oak, ash and probably a few other species.
Yup, a bungee or a tire!
I got the x27 at your recommendation and haven’t looked back at the 6lbs maul since. I do choke up on it at times for smaller easier splitting logs so I don’t just blow through the wood into the dirt so I can see the utility in the x25.
Yup, it is a great axe!
Been using the X27 since fall 2018, and it has been the best splitting axe I've used. Also have the Fiskar's 8 lb Maul 10lb Sledge and 4lb Hammer with wedges. The shorter X25 I found too dangerous as the target pieces strike surface needed to be a bit higher and the full swing follow through was risky! The X27's follow through is lower and of lesser risk. All are a great workout! Keep up the great vids!!
I totally agree!
@@InTheWoodyard Watching your #346 (Pickaroon: Long vs. Short) right now. Ordered the 12" Fiskars Hookaroon XA2 last night to hold small pieces vertically for hatchet splitting. Thanks for the tip!
@@musiclaw1486now that's just stupid. Let me know when you hit the damn thing with your axe how much of a twat you feel
I also have the x27 love it.
Cool!
recently bought an X27, used a 16 lb monster maul for years, getting too old for it. Something to be said for speed and a long handle. I prefer to split the heavy rounds in order to lift them into my truck. I will noodle them if they are too nasty to split. Love the channel. Keep on splitting.
Thanks for watching!
16lb lmao 8 is too much for me
I bought my first X27 9 years ago. It's the best splitting axe I've used, you just need to keep them sharp for them to work best. I bought another X27 3 years ago and leave it on my splitter for small branches and some hand splitting. I also have a Fiskars 7853 splitting axe that is 23.5 inches long. I use that one on canoe camping trips, but it's short for normal splitting. I'm going to buy another X27 so I can leave it by my outdoor wood burner. I agree that you don't need to baby these splitting axes and they work great.
Yup, my brother has 3 because when his boys come to help they can get more done and then do not fight over the X27s!
Just bought one today and split a black locust tree that came down in my neighbor's yard. She said if I cut it up for her I could have the wood. I got the X27. Love it.
Yup, tools that just work!
Iv bn using the x25 for 10 years now it'll split whatever you want old oak, beach Ash knotted pine, it's a great tool and I am 5ft11, and preferred it to the longer axe!
Yup, they both are great axes!
Brother?
I have the 8lb burst maul and it's AMAZING 😻
Nice, how many hours can you swing it, that much weight would put me down fast!
After this video, I need to add Fiskars X27 to my firewood tool set. I got the Fiskars Hookaroon 28” a few years back and have never looked back. I use my tools and the hookaroon has stood up and laughed at me, as if saying is that all you got? For reference I have moved 24” across bucked pieces of live standing red oak up to waist height with that hookaroon and never lost a round, I do not do that all the time, it was a test to see how it would hold onto the round, it passed with flying colors. That had me hooked on Fiskars. Great well built tools that work and hold up. Great video Chris
Yup, they just work!
Amen, also own a x27 and love it, I have a splitting axe from Lowes / Homedepot that has flares on the side that also works very well, but the fiskers by far is the best bang for $$$ in quality and will outlast the handler
Good to hear!
I was trying to decide if I was going to buy a fiskars splitting ask or invest in something more expensive like a German axe buy after watching your videos tonight I’m going to grab a X27 because I leave my axe outside and the longer handle is safer & harder swing. Thanks for the video. I did already buy a Fiskars hatchet a couple months ago and like it.
Good choice!!
Thank you!!
Thanks for watching!!
I love my x27. I just got the fiskars 8lbs maul. You have to try one. They definitely figured out the geometry. Minimal effort on huge rounds. Swings as good as the x27.
Thanks for the tip!
Got the 6. Hits like the 8. Swings a lot easier. The X27 literally doesn’t do it for me. 2-3 swings of a light axe tires you quicker than one hard swing of maul.
X27 Is GREAT!! I haven't used my maul since!
Yup, they are nice!
AND !
90% fewer shreds and shards than the giant processor.
So fewer trips to mount Shardmore with the tractor bucket.
Nice job on today's installment .
Yup, thanks!!
I bought the X27 about a year ago. Fantastic axe, no regrets. But when I was trying to decide between the X27 and the X25, I was wishing there was a 32" version of it. A 32" would have been my first choice, because that's what my 8lb maul is, and I'm used to that length. If they ever make a 32", (X26?), I'll be getting that.
Cut the handle down and put a fawns foot/swell on the end with tape maybe.
@@InTheWoodyard Or use a heat gun and a piece of metal conduit to bell it out and let it cool.
I just picked up the smaller X-25, it's basically for around the house use, and occasionally chopping up a fell limb. Thanks
Yup, nice!
I think from the looks of it the X25 would be better for splitting wood when it's elevated or for shorter people. I'm tall like you and seen a video from Fiskars about picking the correct axe for you. It said that your arm length and your arm strength would determine the size and weight of your axe. So you're right about it being safer to have a longer axe for a taller man. I hauled concrete for years the guys would mark their tools so nobody ran off with them, so I'm used to seeing tape, paint or a name scratched into tools, it would help to find them as well.
Yup, making your tool is a smart thing!
Fiskars Fan myself, for a long time. I stuffed a 1 foot chunk of bicycle inner tube into the hollow handle using a skinny stick. I think it's about 6 inches in from the open end. Try it, it can be removed. I like the feel in the hands....
Cool anti vibe idea!
Great video Chris. I have the X27. Hand/Plastic
Surgeon advised no hand splitting for me. Thumb is not quite ready for swinging an axe.
Right on! Just use the green machine!
I have the X25 and its a beast i love it
They make great stuff!
😂❤🎉
Ive used the 27 for 5 years and honestly, if you get a really nasty piece of wood full of burls that wont split, it happens, I use my saw cut the piece in half with the grain part way and use the fiskars to finish it. I cut 15 pulp wood cords or 45 face cords annually, we heat strictly with wood in Michigans UP.
No kidding its a really good tool and didnt break the bank. Ive been thinking about buying a fancy axe, but ive thought about it and whats the point? So it looks cool? The fiskars looks cool enough, my logger buddies know its a serious tool and a couple of them bought the 27 also after swinging mine.
Great video fella!
Yup, I have a few of them and like them just fine. They just work and when someone tries one out they want one.
I would agree best splitting axe I've ever used.
Thanks!
Fiskars 8 lb Mual out performs any Mual we've ever used and the Iso Core handle is great!
Yup, I agree!
With all things it’s what we get accustomed to. I’ve used a Stihl 35” for years. I guess that’s what’s make the world go around.
That is a nice tool too!
Yes , they work well .
Yes I agree!
i dont know why im here but this was pretty cool and helpful
Thanks so much for watching Mr. Kibble!! Youare in the right place!
I use Fiskars products and love them 👍🏻
Yes! They make great tools!
I love my X27. I believe the head design is the biggest game changer.
Yup! I agree!
Huge fan of fiskar products I hand split all my wood with fiskar even though we have a splttter there’s something satisfying about hand splitting especially with a great axe
Yes! It is great exercise for sure!
Fiskars are great!! Nice job splitting Chris👊🏻👍🏻👍🏻GNI
Thanks Sir not even close on the guess!! Haaaaa!
A tip for everyone to stop it getting stuck in the block, is to round off the top of the wedge on the face with a angle grinder.
Thanks James!
I’ve owned an X27 for years. It has a long reach (I’m 6’2”) and it hits with authority. Tremendous splitter. As you say, it is the only maul I use anymore.
Yup, it just works!
I bought my x27 in 2010 for 39 bucks outta a catalogue , and I still use the same damn axe, it won’t break either if you miss either . Well worth it .
Yup, I like them just fine!
Nice to have straight grained wood to split. I have a lot of elm and ash here. Think I will stay with the log splitter LOL Great video though and like the way they work.
Yup, elm goes on the splitter!
Nice review, on shorter side here at 5 ft 9 and the x27 is the perfect size.
Very nice!
Amen to that great job enjoy the video God bless
Thank you kindly John!
I got the X27LL. I am a small guy, broke my back 28 years ago due excavator bucking hitting me so it's makes this a hard job. I find the larger swing circle helps.
Yup, I like the x27 more also!
