After years of woodchopping the straight vs curved handles issue has bugged me, with very strong opinions either way. A lot of interesting theory on balance, however I think in most cases the curved handles has little to no effect on changing the balance point compared to straight as the controlling hands on impact are in a similar position relative to the axis as a curved handle anyway. I think it has more to do with adding control as the curve at the end acts like a crank and stops the axe twisting.
