Yes that's the one I have but with a different colour handle. I expect/would hope that the Estwing ones are made of a better grade of steel to get a sharper edge but it could just be a marketing scam to be fair as so many other quality brands are used for this purpose these days. |

That looks rather big for kindling. In use today, It does seem a bit large for close, careful work like creating kindling but good for ‘heavy swing’ log breaking! 👍 Ive seen this advertised as a ‘light throw’ axe.. perhaps this would be better for kindling purposes?  |

My stepson was given a matched pair of throwing axes as a wedding present, beautifully crafted items. It's surprisingly hard to throw them and get them to stick in the target. For those that haven't seen axe throwing think of playing darts but with axes😎🌚 |

I'd say telemachus and I must come a close 2nd and 3rd in THAT department!  Don't you start ... I've already had to bite my fingers to stop me responding to Telemachus in relation to 'just a little prick' ... I REALLY need to avoid tasteless references to 'who comes 2nd or 3rd' Rog Last one gets the biscuit! Oh the joys of public and approved schools. |
