Durable and Sharp

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a great upgrade from my last hatchet. I put this through a rugged test chopping up hard wood stumps on my property. The fiberglass handle and design really helped with kickback from the chopping and it stayed sharp through all of the cutting. I would recommend this to anyone looking to purchase a new hatchet.

Great Hatchet

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The X7 Hatchet did a great job chopping the limbs off of the trees. Fiskars is great brand in my opinion. The X7 Hatchet did not let me down. Gotta love that is has a "full lifetime warranty". It says it's "virtually unbreakable". I think if I tried hard enough I could break, but with normal use it should stand up great. It also said it "chops up to 3x deeper". I don't know if that is true, because I don't know how deep it should chop. ...

Lightweight but sturdy

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hatchet is great. It's just the right size for cutting smaller blocks of wood and even with the handle being plastic, it feels sturdy and strong in your hand. The shaft of the handle is a nice length to adjust grip based on your hand size or leverage needed. Both my wife and I have used this hatchet with ease. The protective cover over the blade locks in place is a plus.

Sharp and solid

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent hatchet. Can not recommend this enough. It is a very heavy duty and solid hatchet. The Fiskars X7 Hatchet (14") will definitely last. I have used this for chopping wood in the fireplace and for the bar-b-que. I highly recommend this.

Well balanced, easy to clean

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great tool. The sleek design first caught my eye. When I picked it up I liked the balance and feel. The sturdy sheath is an added bonus and is ideal for storing and hanging on the pegboard. For a small (14”) hatchet it delivers a surprisingly deep cut. The coating enables the tool to be easily cleaned. Good product – recommend.

Best hatchet I've used yet

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hatchet is strong and sturdy. It's so lightweight which makes it easy to swing. I i use it for woodwork, even wood carving. It has a lifelong warranty, which tells me that this is a reliable tool, because why would they give a lifelong warranty for something that would easily break?
