## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beautifully made axe at a very reasonable price.
*by S***T on March 21, 2025*

A beautifully made axe at a very reasonable price. I have used this a couple of times, just for splitting. It works great. A good weight for a splitting axe. I hope to use it for some cutting, and wedge driving soon.

### ⭐⭐⭐ The handle needs attention.
*by B***R on February 21, 2025*

I haven't put this axe to work yet but here's what I noticed from looking at two brand new ones. I returned the first one I received because there was a crack in the grip end of the handle that I could spread apart with my fingers. I also noticed that the head was a little loose. The handle on the second axe I got was free from cracks but after sticking the head in a chopping block I noticed the handle was still a little loose. I like the design of this axe so I will reset the head myself, however it's something the manufacturer needs to do correctly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great bang for the buck, all pun intended.
*by B***D on August 18, 2024*

Initial response upon opening box was great.this is the 50DR28S axe head do not go by the Amazon provided pic.Cutting edge comes with a reasonably sharp usable edge not razor sharp.Handle grain was the best that one could hope for no run out, no twisting or warping straight grained(luck of the draw)which I won this time.Waxy feeling finish on the handle will be carded off and sealed with linseed oil.One small paint drip on the pole which I am sure will disappear the first time it meets a wedge.As I assumed before ordering the 5lb head and short handle feels head heavy and unbalanced, IMHO Council Tool should remake this in a 4ish lb version which would be better balanced more so resembling a National or rafting pattern.If my first impressions change after actually putting it to work I will update my review.
