Forged, one-piece solid-steel construction eliminates loose heads and broken handles - the demise of many wood-handle axes. The Fireside Friend has a 2-3/8" cutting edge that is ideal for splitting kindling.
Length: 14".
Although a bit expensive this is a beautiful tool and is so useful for splitting any firewood requiring less than a full-sized splitting maul. 4 lbs. at first seems a bit heavy but anything less would not do the job as well, plus it will quickly build up your wrist and forearm muscles! And the sledge end will pound in anything that can be pounded.
Works great for smaller or medium sized firewood. Will even split larger pieces of wood with a little help from a hand sized sledgehammer. This is a must for campsight, hunting camp, or firepit. Excellent quality, very heavy duty, is a little spendy but you will know why when you recieve it !!!!
