PowerhousePHX-12 (Hatchet 360) High Performance Axe, Black

This axe is just what we were looking for. It is very well made, well-balanced, and ergonomic. It works great, and we expect it to last, but it took consider work to sharpen the blade. It came with a cover over the blade, so we expected it to be at least somewhat sharp but it wasn't. It took about 30 minutes or so of constant work to sharpen the blade with a hand sharpener, and then it worked like a charm. The price was definitely worth the extra effort. I would highly recommend buying it, but be prepared to sharpen it upon arrival.

I have been cutting down a number of trees on my property this summer and wanted the wood for my fire pit. This product shipped so fast that it seemed like I went to the home center and just picked it up. I was excited when it arrived and I started using it right away. It works like a dream. It is well balanced which means that it won't tire you as quickly. Plus, it cut through hardwood apple and oak with ease.

Axe was dull when it arrived. It appears to be hardened, as it took some effort to put a sharp edge on it. It cut decently. Good balance. Right amount of head weight to produce reasonable wood chips.

Bought the Powerhouse Axe strictly for splitting hardwoods for my pizza oven. It's large head and balanced handle make it a breeze to use. Can't miss the axe out in the yard either with the very bright orange phosphorescent handle! Looks like it will last a lifetime. The manufacturer even offers a free blade sharpener if you register the product. Go Powerhouse!

Axe head is loose on the handle. Not sure if putting a new axe handle on like many of the reviews say will help it. The hole is bigger than the handle head. Really unhappy with the purchase. You would think the quality control would be a LOT better. Come on manufacturer. Get your stuff together. This will hurt someone!Update #1:So I cut the handle off to attach a new one since this handle is horrible. It don’t fit and the grain of the wood is fairly porous. The head of the handle inside the axe head was loose. It also had a good amount of some kind of bondo / filler. A few good hits and it would have came apart.Now the axe head. They use some really good paint because it fills in all the imperfections and there are a lot. VERY POOR QUALITY WORKMANSHIP! The angle of the hole is offset from the blade so attaching a new handle may be a waste of even more money. Inside the hole I had to take a file because it was a mess. It was not even and had a huge ridge in the middle which would make it hard to attach a new handle to as well.I would HIGHLY recommend NOT purchasing this item. For $30 go to your local hardware store and get one that has twice the quality. You will only get hurt using this thing.

I surched for a quality inexpensive axe at local stores and on Amazon. I found this one being the best one for the price, vaule and good quality.I recommend this type of axe for camping,hunting and general outdoors use. I use this axe in my back yard for preparation of dry fire wood that I use in my outdoor fireplace and camping stove. I also use thi axe in my back yard for landscaping of trees and bushes. I highly recommend this axe for the value, quality at a fair price. (RLM)

This hatchet came in less than 24 hours after ordering it. I will make good use of while camping next weekend in Northern MN. It looks well-made, sharp and functional.

-Mala manufactura: el hacha se desprendió del mango al segundo día de uso-Se entregó sin afilar
