I have a normal ax, which I use for firewood. I thought that I would be completely sufficient equipped. Due to a larger amount of firewood logs of 30cm diameter I have then made an Spaltaxt bestellt.Fiskars me with other garden tools already überzeugt.Und Again an impressive performance with this log splitter. That would be better than my simple ax was clear to me! But I am able the standing timber, which I otherwise mastered only with a riving knife to divide with this Spaltaxt convinced me. Pro: 1.Verarbeitung the Spaltaxt very good. 2.Durch the blade geometry and the non-stick coating can be the ax blade very easily pull out of the wood. 3.Very good balanced weight distribution. 4.Klingenschutz with handle for carrying and hanging. 5.Very high splitting performance.
Cons: 1.Relativ high price - even compared to the X25 Splitting Axe
But here again, the realization that quality comes at a price! It's worth it every now and then but times to invest a little more, because that makes the wood split only once again fun.
