Hey, great practical review. I have the exact tool and it has saved my back many times over.
The older I get, the less I want to move. Here is a small tip to save a swivel:
Pick a log off the ground and swing it up under your arm, unstick, then stick another log.
You now have a log in one hand and another log on the pickeroon. You can then move to where you want to move or stack your logs, but with two logs.
That would speed things up. Thanks for watching.
I got two bad knees and a bad back and using the pickaroon to load and unload firewood from the truck bed has been a game changer, I also use it to to reach tools and other stuff that has slid forward in my truck bed that I normally couldn’t reach. A very simple and a handy tool that I use all the time.
It is a nice tool that definitely has uses other then just picking up wood. Thanks for watching.
Wow what great find, thanks to our friends that are in the know about ins and outs of such helpful tools. Aces to those with the suggested device!
I always get great suggestions from subscribers. Try to follow up if I can. Thanks for watching.
That thing looks really handy. I might have to get one. Thanks for sharing.
It is handy and works good. Don't think it is any faster but it helps to eliminate bending over. Thanks for watching.
Gripo brand, Canadian Style Pulpwood Hooks are awesome. Buckin Billy Ray showed how well they work.
I got a wood handle one, three actually, but one that I like. Great device. Yes, All Fiskars tools are lifetime warranty. Awesome company!!!
I got the blade on my geared loppers replaced.
I am very happy with this one and think it will last longer then I will. I like the handle length and shape that makes it easy to index. I was able to move that whole stack of wood without having to bend over. We all find different ways and tools to accomplish the same task that work best for us. Thanks for watching.
I have one. Very happy with it. I usually use it to drag large rounds to the splitter if they are really big.It may seam to take a little longer but, I can go all day without my back hurting.Thanks for the vodeo!!
It definitely does grab well and is going to be handy. Thanks for watching.
Great gift idea! Thanks for the demo.
If you handle a lot of firewood it is great. Thanks for watching.
Just got one myself couple weeks ago, great tool! Saves your back when picking from the pile, hefting logs on to the splitter and also unloading from the back of a pick-up. One observation did occurred to me though, be careful when swinging, it could easily end up buried deep in your shin with a swing and a miss.
I have gotten pretty good with mine. Had a couple near misses in the beginning also. It's a great helper for moving firewood. Thanks for watching.
This is awesome and a great way to keep your hands safe, get a decent workout, all while feeling pretty hardcore 😂 thanks for your review! I'm really impressed with fiskars garden tools.
Just have to keep an eye on your toes. I have a few of their tools and have never had a problem. Thanks for watching.
Those Hookeroons are as handy as a third hand in wallpaper hanging contest. They sure come in handy for moving wood around. Thanks for sharing
They sure are handy. Thanks for watching.
My work bends me over enough. I dont need to do it to myself when I'm working In the yard. Lol
This definitely eliminates most bending when moving firewood chunks. Thanks for watching.
Always good to see another video from you. I'm glad to see you have another useful tool to make the job easier. Good review. I don't blame you about avoiding snakes. I even hate worms. LOL. Take care. :)
At least around here the snakes disappear for 6 months of the year. This is the first year we have seen snakes other then small garter snakes. I think all the flooding is pushing them up to dry land where their food source has moved to. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the review. If I had one for each hand I bet I could go to town!
You would have 2 sore arms then😉. I love it, should have gotten one years ago. Thanks for watching.
It looks pretty slick that’s for sure. Might have grab one of them.
It works good and eliminates bending but is no faster. I think it will be handy to have around. Thanks for watching.
Great video! Thanks
I really like it but It definitely uses muscles I don't often use. It's a great helper if you handle a lot of firewood. Thanks for watching.
Pretty cool 😎
Great tool I will be getting one save the back 👍
I love mine and it still works great. Thanks for watching.
Excellent review man - looks like a good tool.
It is! Really helps with moving firewood. Thanks for watching.
Loggers have used them for years. Awesome tool. I have a couple of old wooden handle kind. I would think about investing in some steel toe boots and shin guards , it will make a mess out of you. Be safe. Thanks for sharing . Enjoy your channel
It definitely could do some damage if it glances off and hits you. I like how light this one is. Thanks for watching.
Looks like a back saver for sure!
It's a back saver but the arms get a good workout. Thanks for watching.
Fiskar's are great! They make some of the most wonderful scissors and garden snips! They also make a wonderful extending limber. Check them out if you are in the market for something like that.
I picked up one of the limbers last fall and haven't tried it yet. Walmart had them marked down from $50.00 to $10.00 so I grabbed one. I use their pruners all the time. Thanks for watching.
I ordered one last night. Man, you are costing me money! 😂😉
I think that goes both ways 😀. Thanks for watching.
Back savers are great just watch your toes with them.
That definitely would hurt. Thanks for watching.
Boys and their toys 😊
I can't qualify this as a toy, it is more like a exercise machine 😉. Thanks for watching.
I bought the exact same thing from the exact same place for the exact same reason for the exact same price. great minds think alike
That thing is a real back saver. I had a couple misses that I thought would break the handle but it only got a couple scuffs. Should have bought one years ago. Thanks for watching.
I'll take big, harmless snakes any day of the week. Had a coral snake in the backyard here in FL a month ago - now I have to do a sweep of the yard before I can let the dog out. Worst part is I had a chance to take it out with the lawn mower when I first saw it - but I let it slither away.....
Cool tool tho - def. easier than bending and chucking for an afternoon.....
Hopefully I will find it and get a picture to see what it really is. Loaded up some snake shot for my 357 if it is a bad boy. It works good you just have to watch your toes. Thanks for watching.
In Canada you just bring in your fiskars tools that are broke to Canadian tire and they give you a new one, people grab crappy ones at thrift store then go get the upgrade
Here I think you need the original receipt. Not many companies stand behind what they make like Fiskars. Thanks for watching.
Just ordered mine, I'm a sixty two year old chainsaw artist , my back reminded me you shouldn't have waited so long.
That thing is awesome. Moved that whole mountain of wood with it. Really builds up the arm muscles. Thanks for watching.
That's a whole lotta wood! You heat soley with it? Ever thought of building a rocket mass heater vs wood stove?
We use a Jotul Oslo and love it. Thanks for watching.
URHC I bet you could make a sharper point on it and it would stick easier!
Then it would probably go in to deep. Just a matter of learning to use it. Thanks for watching.
What kind of snakes do you have there. Also whereabouts in the USA are you?
In western NY. Mostly garter and water snakes by us. Thanks for watching.
Do these pickaroons pickup split hardwood easy as well?
That's all I use it for. Thanks for watching.
You can’t go wrong with any Fiskers product, I’m starting to get a good collection of them myself. If you ever need to see anything to do with firewood, check out Eric’s channel “Life in the Farmland “ I believe. It might be Life on the farmland. I know it’s one of the two. Anyway, he’s tried many firewood tools out there and has a good channel if you get a chance to check him out.
They definitely did a good job with this tool. It worked great out of the box, it is so light and comfortable to use. I don't have much time to watch other channels but will take a look. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching.
👋😊
Thanks for watching.
Just blast some Michael Bolton music. ♫♫♫♫
That snake will run straight for the neighboring county, FOR SURE!!
So would I 😉. Thanks for watching.
I was just looking online I see that in the Buffalo area, there are three venomous snakes, Timber Rattlers, Copperhead, and another type of Rattler, hmmmm, maybe you should exterminate these critters if you can't readily identify them, I had no idea, NY had these critters.
We had copperheads at our last house and they were very aggressive. I think rattlers are protected in NY. As long as they have round eyes I think they are non venomous.
What all youinsguys got in your area timber rattlers and probably Mississauga(swamp rattlers)rattlers and occasional copperheads rat snakes too probably we get all that and more with the gardener snakes 🐍
I think it is from all the flooding at the bottom of the hill pushing all the snake food up to dry ground. I think it's just a water snake. Got half the pile moved and haven't seen it. Thanks for watching.
if you don't mind me asking which state do you live in? i take your in AMERICA
oh how i dislike snakes had a Michigan rattler bite me when i was about 10 years old i was up north in the woods catching a bucket full of snakes why i have no clue i guess young & dumb
I'm in NY east of Rochester. This is the first year we have seen anything other than garter snakes. Thanks for watching.
Big snake could be a Rat snake...
I think it is just a water snake. Hopefully I can get some pics of it. Thanks for watching.
Pssst, I bet the snake(s) are more scared of you, you don't have any Timber Rattlers. do you? I bet the snakes are non-venomous, but, they probably would be pissed off if someone tried to pick them up. They probably eat mice and voles.
They definitely are great to have around but I don't like the big ones. I think it is just a big water snake and will try to get some pics if it comes out again. Thanks for watching.
Your back love it but not your shoulders
Moving that whole pile with it definitely built up my left arm muscles. Thanks for watching.
Cheap Gym membership!!!!!
Definitely is a good upper body workout. Thanks for watching.
