Greetings friends,
I need an axe for the house. Mainly splitting and making kindling. But I like heirloom quality. Plus, a modest refund this year on overpaying can’t just sit around. I mean — COME ON!
I looked A LOT at the Wranglerstar videos. He’s in love with Gränsfors Bruk (particularly the small forest and the Scandinavian (large) forest). Quality on those, now, may have gone down.
He then recommended a husky that has online reviews that show, time after time, the axe head failing. Not where I want to put MY money..
so. I come to you. The REAL experts on things where I spend ridiculous amounts on things I didn’t even know I needed to begin with.
Suggestions, please.
Have a a great day! Cheers!

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I'm not clicking any of these links. I'm drawing the line at fancy axes. Ya'll won't get me this time.
Check out this guys blog. It's been a couple years since he updated it but he goes into very good detail about several of the axes mentioned here.

Doesn’t help with your query, but I split about 2 white oak trees worth of logs with this and a sledge hammer some years ago.
