Pros

The 4lb. Design and weight are both prefect for it’s job. Heavy and chops nice.

Heavy and sharp enough to split even larger peices of wood without needing to carry a full size ax or splitting maul. It almost effortlessly splits dry pine into kindling. For breaking up pine firewood into smaller pieces, it cuts it with ease.

The steel handle and tempered steel craftsmanship is at its best in this tool. Works as expected while camping and chopping wood. Made in usa is the icing.
