Softer metals dull quicker but are heartier when it comes to using it day to day splitting and chopping wood. Especially for a splitting maul and splitting axe, you don't need it to be perfectly sharp. It will do the job as it is, and last longer overall than an axe with a head that is too hard. You really don't want a piece of the axe head chipping off and getting embedded into one of your body parts. It sucks.

@m3nathan 2 жыл бұрын

Lightly blunt the very sharp factory edge then reprofile it to a move obtuse angle. It only needs a small secondary angle to support the new working edge. The reason for the factory edge rolling then chipping is because they are ground to a very long narrow wedge, the working edge is too thin and has no supporting angle.

@AnarchAngel1 Жыл бұрын

@@m3nathan The steel at the apex is fatigued from the grinding process too. It simply needs to be slightly convexed with a sharpening puck and this doesn't happen. Like you said it just needs slightly stronger geometry at the apex and it's all good. I prefer a slight convex to a microbevel like you're describing. Hand sharpening an axe will always lead to a slight convex and that's what you want

@AnarchAngel1 Жыл бұрын

It's a fine axe. Nothing wrong with it at all. The steel is a little bit on the softer side but it holds up absolutely fine for splitting once you knock that factory edge off. Like a minute or 2 with a sharpening puck to barely convex the edge and get rid of the compromised steel right at the apex is all that's needed. I've had the older all black 37" version for like a decade and this never happens to me unless I bury the axe in the dirt or the wood is literally covered in sand and rocks etc. Anyone watching should do themselves a favor and disregard this "advice", you'll never want to use a maul again after using the Fiskars. I've split every type of wood that grows in my area with these things and they work extremely well. Everything from Hickory, Oak and Ash to Red Cedar. Keep it out of the dirt and don't smash it through rock covered wood and it will hold up just fine. This guy is acting like this is a cutting axe

Like I said in my original post, if you're halfway competent at sharpening, just take 2 minutes to knock the factory edge off just a little bit (I'm talking a very slight microbevel) to get rid of the compromised steel at the apex and toughen the edge. I promise if you do that the edge won't take damage unless you put it in the dirt or hit a rock etc. like any axe would. I have their hatchet and the x11 too. All of them are very good.

I’m specifically after an axe or hatchet that can be used probably 90% of the time one handed to split hard dry knotty Eucalypt wind fall branches that we have scattered all over the forest floor. I want to split the branches by chopping them along the side of the branch with the blade parallel along the grain so the branch and the handle of the axe are in line with each other. Intend of use a larger log as the ‘anvil’ to chop the branches on. I would also occasionally want to use the axe for some chopping and bucking of some heavier branches if I can’t drag the whole branch to camp so I like the idea of using the axe two handed occasionally when necessary. I want to carry it as a pack or belt axe so portability and weight are also important. What’s the best model and size of fiskars axe you would recommend to chop through hard knotty branches successfully but also not weighing a ton? Thanks for any suggestions

Whateva it’s cheap so it’s probably factory decarbidization from overly hot grinding or thin edge during heat treat-grind back 3mm on a hand sander in a vise (unsafe be careful) while dipping it in ice water every few seconds to not detemper from heat and the steel will be harder hopefully and it won’t happen again.

I have multiple of fiskars axes, no issues with the blades as long as you keep them outta the dirt.

I don’t it’s the axe that is a problem.

I'm not a smart guy so correct me if I'm wrong but axe steel is tough but not as hard as some other steels. I believe it's meant to prevent shattering. Again, I may be wrong.

It's a SPLITTER. Not a chopper. A few chips and rolls won't hinder you.

#1 fiskars grinds fron the factory, put your own edge on it. #2 Fiskars has a lifetime warranty.

It's an splitting maul, it's not going to be nor supposed to be extremely sharp. Any real splitting maul will do that. Don't sharpen it so sharp or ignore it and keep on chopping. It takes a pretty big chip out of the blade to make a splitting maul ineffective. Even a dime-sized chip won't hurt it splitting wise but this is not even damaged at all.

lifetime warranty. take it to your local ace hardware. although you might get stupid looks when you try to explain how its "broken"

It’s not even an expensive axe. A softer edge is easier to sharpen. Have you ever tried to “re-profile” an axe with an extremely hard edge? If it can’t be easily done with a file, to me, it’s not a good axe

You sound like a baby, do you stop splitting if you see sparks? Do you need to be able to cut hair with your axe? There is nothing wrong with it... if you don't want it ship it to me, I'll pay the shipping.
