Splitting Axe, Forest Axe or Maul

Tool uses

The splitting axe is suited to splitting firewood. The forest axe is designed for felling and pruning smaller logs, while the maul is intended for tasks that require strong impact force. Each head shape is adapted to its intended use: the splitting axe creates a broad splitting effect, the forest axe has a narrower edge to help it penetrate wood, and the maul has a solid head for impact.

Handling

The handle lengths and balance between head and handle support controlled swings. The plastic handle coating improves grip and absorbs vibrations. Maintain a stable stance and controlled swing while using the tools.

Materials and care

The heads are made of steel and the handles are plastic. After use, remove dirt and resin, check that the head is secure on the handle, and carefully sharpen the edge if needed. Wipe the steel heads occasionally to help prevent surface corrosion. Store the tools in a dry place and out of reach of children.
