## Description

desertcart.com : Fiskars Norden N12 Splitting Axe with Recycled Leather Sheath (19 in.) : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: Splits wood like a laser gun - After muddling along with a cheapo hatchet for years, I'm very happy with this purchase. After a quick sharpening with the Lansky, it goes right through 4-5 inch rounds with almost zero effort. If I was in a Fellowship of the Ring scenario, instead of being like Gimli and offering my ax, I would keep quiet and hang out in the background. I'm not giving this ax to anybody. Honestly, the 19-inch N12 may be a little bit of overkill just for camping-related wood splitting. The 17-inch N10 would likely be plenty for most people, and a little bit smaller. Can't go wrong with either one though.
Review: It fights over its weight - As a splitting tool the n12 is very good. The weight and balance is right for that task. But I want to add that it is also a really good camp tool and if your me ... a good trekking axe. I can pack it and it works well for bucking up to two inch soft woods in one whack. Felling anything bigger than say, 3 1/2 to 4 inch is harder but if you need to fell trees you need a felling axe. This will feather stick, notch and tool prep. It will spark a fero rod. It might be heavy for some backpacking but I’m the type that makes due with weight for what I get.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classic Handle Melded to a Modern Axe Head
*by E***K on December 15, 2020*

I have 3 other Fiskars spitting axes, the X27, the x7 and the splitting maul. I'm not a pro, just a homeowner turned wood splitting enthusiast from living on a wooded lot. We need to have tress taken down from time to time and I have grown to really enjoy the process of cutting, splitting and seasoning wood to burn in our high efficiency Loki fireplace and outdoor fire pit. I love the Fiskars but recently I started longing for a wood handle axe, mostly for nostalgic and tactile reasons. Almost pulled the trigger on other more expensive German and Swiss splitting axes but Fiskars released this just in time. The modern lines and components of thier original Fiskars is what drew me to them in the first place so this was the best of all worlds for me. I am a designer as my profession so form matters. It is beautiful to look at, particularly the way the wood meets the resin head with a metal ring. Great details and I will never have to worry about the head flying off. If the handle breaks (although I can't image it will), I'm sure Fiskars will replace. They are a great company that stand behind their product. The balance is perfect, I use one handed and both hands for splitting smaller logs or kindling. I hope they decide to release a larger version, somewhere in the 24-28" range. Highly recommnded.
