Description of Fiskars 7884 X27 36-Inch Super Splitting Axe
Ideal for taller users or anyone who prefers a longer axe, our much-requested X27 Splitting Axe provides power that makes splitting medium-sized to extra-large logs easier than ever. Like every X-Series? Hatchet or Axe, the X27 combines perfected weight distribution, advanced blade geometry, an ultra-sharp edge and virtually unbreakable design to maximize your performance. This combination of features allows the blade to disperse wood more effectively, offering more one-strike splits with each swing.

Since you can split wood more easily with the X27, each job requires less time, less effort and less hand strain.Tools and Hardware Reviews of Fiskars 7884 X27 36-Inch Super Splitting Axe
Customer Review: Best Firewood Splitting Hand Tool I've Ever Used
Summary: 5 Stars
Another 5 star review of the Fiskars 36" Splitting Axe to convince you to definitely buy this great splitting axe. I am 5'10". I did have the 28" Fiskars axe but I knew it was too short and unsafe. After the first swing, I sent it back. I now have the 36" and what a awesome splitting axe. It easily blows away my other splitting axes and mauls - Collins 36" 6 and 8 lbs mauls, Ames True Temper Axe Eye Wood Splitter and Ames True Temper Super Splitter Wood Splitter-Maul. The 36" Fiskars is light - only 4 lbs., important when you hand splitting (and I was definitely grateful for the light weight difference after splitting several cords of wood). Even though it's light, I've had great luck splitting all sorts of hardwoods, red/white oak, black locust, walnut - and those are some of your hardest firewood types. On really tough pieces, I start splitting off the four outer sides where the tree growth rings are the weakest and then I'm left with a sort of square-ish center piece which is usually small enough to burn. This axe has a nice sharp blade and it holds it sharpness pretty long between sharpenings. Another great feature is how the handle is molded up and around the blade. I have really missed my mark and gave this handle a beating and (so far) it's holding up great. I've broke hickory and cracked fiberglass handles before, but this handle is tough. Also, you get a nice little locking blade protector case with a handle on it. So, in conclusion, in my opinion, this is the best splitting axe I've ever used.Plus you'll save $$$ by not buying an electric/gas wood splitter. Also, buy yourself some steel toe boots and eye protection; can't be too careful. Here are some great tips for those just getting into wood burning. For those of you shopping for a wood burner, I have a Lopi Freedom Insert. With Black Locust firewood, I'm getting 12 plus hour burns which is superb. But if you don't have to get an insert and can fit a freestanding stove in your room, get a Blaze King. You'll get up to 40 hour burns (with oak, locust), plus they have a ash pan (unlike most inserts) and an automatic adjustable damper so it'll automatically adjust temperature/heat output. Also, I installed a inline fan and some air duct lines to shoot the heat to my bedrooms and other living room on the far end of the house (ranch homes are the hardest to heat with wood because they're so long) It works like a charm - before it would barely get to 65-67 and now it easily gets to 73 and up. Plus, it really balanced out the heat and pulled it out of the fire place den making it much more tolerable. Also, install ceiling fans in all your major rooms, reverse them (for winter), and leave them on low. They pull the heat off the ceiling and re-circulate it down making it more comfortable. Oh, at night, close doors to unused rooms, basements; it'll help direct heat to your bedrooms. If you just have open doorways, $20 vinyl folding doors are cheap, look good, compact and work great. Sorry, yet another tip, you don't need to pay high prices for oak and ash firewood. I burn with black locust, which I can get much cheaper and I'm getting 12 plus hour burn times with them and with all my above mentioned methods in place, my 1700 + sq ft house stays constant at 72 and up. Buy this axe, and splitting that tough to split locust will be easy for you. Sorry for the long review, but I wanted to include this information for any new comers to the wood burning scene. I found all this information by internet searching, trial and error, and asking everyone I knew - all in all it was a headache until I got my system just right. Hopefully, if you're new and wood-burning uneducated like I was, you'll find this information useful. Good luck and have fun with it while getting good exercise.
