Review: Review from someone that DOESN'T use it against trees... - I've had this particular axe (the double bit) for approximately a year now and I felt like I needed to give Estwing some love and write a review. I'm kind of a "knife/tomahawk" guy and own a couple of tomahawks however I wanted to review this for one reason. I actually use this in my line of work (ie LE work). I wanted to give a made in the US product a go and I couldn't beat the price. Once I got it I realized this tool is pretty substantial. It looks like a mating beween a viking hand axe and something you would pick up at Lowes...so the sexy factor..yea it's not as "tacticool" as others but this thing tears some Ass. I've used it mainly in raids, I've destroyed numerous security cameras with it, hacked my way through a trailer door with it, tore up some floor boards, destroyed a sentry brand safe with it (I've actually breached 8 safes with this bad boy), smashed door knobs, hacked open a 5 gallon water jug filled with illegal contraband (took me four hits, 5 gallon water bottles are thick...try to stab one with a good knife like a Ka-Bar and see what happens). Now some people knock the nylon sheath and yea I won't lie, something with Kydex and a MOLLE attachment would be sweet, but my solution was pretty simple. I carry it on my armor carrier using a D-Cell flashlight ring, same principle like a medieval knight would of used for a hand axe. On the sheath are a couple of snap buttons. I made a loop with some 550 cord and attached it to the top of the sheath. I unbotton two of the snaps and kind of jiggle it on. Slap it my ring and I'm ready to rock. Once I need it I just slide it out the ring pull the sheath off and start wailing. The edge sharpens up fine as long as you know how to sharpen an axe. I really have abused this thing and it keeps on going. I clean it off touch up the edge a bit and thats the only maintenance. If you want it for camping I think it would be great for that, but I have a different axe for that so If you're in the market for a tactical hawk' and If you're someone (ie cop, operator, mil) that actually USES tactical hawk's for destroying stuff...then this is your gal right here. Review: Great product for the price... - I had no idea until recently that Estwing had this model or the Spike model until recently. I love these kinds of tools, especially when you consider the price. The Double Bit Axe is of the same quality as the rest of Estwing's line of tools, and I feel like a kid again when I take it into the woods. The axe is extremely solid because of its all steel construction, but with that comes a bit of weight. This axe is a bit heftier than it might look, but i'd rather have the extra bit of weight for the conviction that this tool is going to last a long time. The edge wasn't great from the factory. It has more of a utility edge, but I was able to get the sharpness to where I wanted it fairly easily. I've been using this as a thrower, do I don't want the edges too thin. The edge for the factory was a good starting point for me, though. The one thing I'm going to try and do is round off the flare at the bottom of the handle so it slips easier from my hand during the throw release. I'm just going to do a little research and find a good way to do it without compromising the material on the handle. I don't want to louse it up and start having the handle start to fall apart. For the price, you can't beat this hawk. It'll hold up as a great tool, and still give you hours of fun. ## Features - OUTDOOR VERSATILITY - Perfect for chopping logs, small trees & branches or splitting firewood & kindling.
