## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do I take care of my Estwing axe?**
A: e.prender1.never chop into the ground or strike rocks with your axe,it could be your life line!!! 2.always sharpen it after use. 3.use a light oil to rub on it. 4. never leave it outdoors,put it in your tent or under a tarp.5.don't ever grind on it with a grinder. 6. don't put handle close to your fire. 7. when chopping, put your limb on a larger piece of wood to chop against,do not chop your piece of wood on the ground.8. keep your feet away from chopping area:wide straddle stance.9. put cover on axe when not in use. hope this helps.

**Q: One review said the handle was hollow. If true, should i just buy a wooden handle axe?**
A: They are hollow but, my husband had his last one for over twenty years. Used hard as a saddle axe. It just finally gave up this last winter. So if they make them like they used to these are darn good to own

**Q: What steel is this made of?**
A: All Estwing striking tools are made from 1055 steel. I called Estwing and asked. Very helpful peeps!

**Q: is it better quality than the standard estwing camp axe**
A: Tho I don't own the standard one, I think it's the same indestructible ax, but in a mat black finish. The sheath is black cordura, I think the standard one may be in leather. Overall I like mine and opted for the black finish, which has been reasonably durable. Hope this helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Axe for the money
*by R***G on September 22, 2015*

Great Axe for the money! Is it a "Gransfors" grade of Axe? Well obviously not? But does it chop wood? And can it chop a 10" tree down? Yes it can. It may take a little more effort and almost twice as many swings as a high end Axe. But this thing can chop a tree down if need be. It doesn't come with a very Sharpe edge on it. It's not dull by no means but not as Sharpe as it could be. So I recommend you take it to a professional like I did and have nice edge put on it for 4 bucks! It will chop at least 20 percent better believe me. Also don't expect it to hold an edge as long as the higher end carbon steel axes. While high end axes don't need sharpening sometime's after chopping several trees? This one will require sharpening much sooner. I just carry a two sided stone with me if I take it camping just I case. But to be honest it stays plenty Sharpe for the amount of chopping I do. It's a bit heavy for backpacking with it on a hike but is manageable. I mainly chop smaller trees with it that are usually no bigger than 5 inches. And it works great for chopping up kindling wood..etc. I only went after a 10" tree with it once to see how long it would take with this axe. And I must say it didn't do to bad. However I would normally use my high end "Gransfors Bruks " felling axe normally for big trees. :) So if your on the fence about buying this axe don't hesitiate! It will take care of anything you need chopped up at your camp site and also help drive those tent stakes into the ground with ease! Just remember the sharper you can make the edge the better the axe will be. I had read only a couple blogs about people actually breaking the steel shaft on this axe. One was using it in the artic I believe in Temps well below minus 30 degrees. Steel gets brittle at those Temps so I'm not surprised it shattered. The other one I read sounded like the guy was purposely trying to break the thing? And eventually he did. But it was from purposely beating it severely on the shaft just below the cutting head against a hard surface of some sort. I haven't read of it breaking off on anyone while chopping wood as of yet? So I wouldn't worry to much about it breaking off and flying away on ya. However it's always a good rule of thumb to never swing an axe near someone else or have them sitting someplace in line with the arc of your swing even if it is 30 feet away. Just common sense really.
