Fiskars 36" Super Splitting Axe

The Fiskars X27 is for those who are used to splitting larger pieces of wood. It’s 36 inches long, so it provides additional reach and power. The head is about 4 pounds, so it has enough heft to cut deeply into logs. Together, the length and weight help the blade bite into wood and then push it apart in just one swing.

Benefits

Here are the primary benefits users get to enjoy with the X27:

• Work Faster: Since each swing is heavier, it takes the user fewer swings per log. This makes firewood preparation and other splitting jobs faster.
• Feel Less Tired: The lighter composite handle and shock absorption will allow users to swing longer without fatigue. The user split more wood in less time.
• Stay Safer: Its robust 36‑inch power‑operated handle keeps the hands and feet protected while splitting. The steel grip means users can maintain control over uneven ground or awkward angles, while the lightweight materials also reduces user fatigue.
• Save Money Over Time: While the X27 costs more than a basic axe, its durability and warranty are a good long‑term value. A quick sharpening is all that’s needed to keep it as good as new.

Usage Tips

A couple of small habits allow users to maximize their performance:

1. Stance and Grip

• Start with feet shoulder‑width apart.
• Hold one at the head and one at the butt.
• As you’re swinging, slide the top hand down the handle to build some speed.

2. Log Setup

• Place logs on a sturdy splitting block. It holds the blade and prevents it from obtaining any damage and keeps it sharp.
• Work on even ground so the block does not tip or shift around.

3. Blade Care

• After heavy use, roll the edge. File out any nicks.
• Remove any sap or dirt between uses to help prevent rust.

4. Wood Choice

• Dry seasoned logs split cleanly and easily.
• Green or wet wood might require a few more swings, but it still take advantage from the way the axe is designed.

Maintenance and Care

Follow these easy tips to ensure that the X27 stays in great shape:

• Use a flat file. Match original edge angle and remove burrs only on alternate sides.
• If the blade becomes sticky or dirty, simply wash it with mild soap and running water. Dry it well before storing.
• Keep the axe in a dry place. A protective sheath lets the user keep the knife secure while not in use.

Regular care guarantees a long, dependable use of the splitting aid.
