I just use an X25 Fiskars and it works great! If you split red oak like I do, it's best to do it around 0 degrees. It's splits like a watermelon when it's that cold!
Bought the Fiskars, and didn’t really use it- something about the handle and feel that I didn’t like. Returned it and bought the Helko Werk, and loved the way it felt, and I’ll keep using it from now on.
If you wrap the grip in skateboard tape or pistol grip tape, it helps SOOOOO much with fiskars. That poly handle is slick and you mentally just wanna death grip it
Its so funny! No other axe gets as much hate directly as the X27!😂😂😂 The X27 was my first axe and what opened the door to the axe world! Unfortunately most all the wood i get is Elm and all i do is handsplit with all my handles and vintage axes! Im not bragging i just enjoy the process! Great video!
That lifetime Warren comes in handy if you split innhe winter and leave your maul/axe in sunlight often. The handles rot after 2-3 winters in the snow. I have had mine replaced twice.
