Comments

Wade: Just get it. You won’t be disappointed.

Brian: I’m sure this would work well for many at home too, but we specifically bought these for Boy Scouts to use and it was a great fit for them. The length was good and the weight is great for the boys who range in ages of 11-18. Even the two adults who got to use it while at camp complimented how nice this was.

Ryan Sullivan: Razor sharp out of the box and great handle construction.

John McGilp: I found the overall condition of the product good however the axe handle knob drill hole was not completely counter sunk. On further inspection the hole seemed slightly offset causing the irregular counter sink. I hope this improves your quality control process. Thanks John ( retired machinist & mechanical draftsman. )

Creeky73: For the record, I am not an expert on axes. As a matter of fact, this is the first time I have swung an axe since high school. I wanted to buy a good camping/backpacking axe to add to the tool collection, just in case. So I took to the internet and started searching for good axes. GB's name kept coming up over and over, and there are plenty of Youtube videos from people who seem to know what they are talking about (and certainly know more than me) giving them glowing reviews. I was torn between just grabbing an Estwing from the local Home Depot for $30-ish dollars, or this one. Even though the price was scary, I couldn't get past so much good word of mouth, so I bought it.

This axe looks like something from 100 years ago, and I love that about it. Yes, it has a handle that could eventually break, but it is also fixable. The head shows all the working marks from the smith that forged it, adding to the old school look. And when people say that it comes razor sharp out of the package, that is absolutely true. I could easily shave hairs off my arm with it. Very impressive. The wooden handle did have a bit of a rough texture to it, but about 10 minutes with some fine steel wool...
