Axes — Description

Axes are made for splitting firewood, trimming branches and working in the forest or garden. The category has axes with fibreglass handles from 0.6 to 1.5 kg, the Fiskars X13 camping axe, replacement shafts of 360 to 900 mm and a steel splitting wedge. Choose by the job: a heavier axe delivers more striking force for splitting, while a lighter one suits camping and finer work. A fibreglass handle is strong and absorbs less moisture, and the shaft length should match your height so the swing is safe and comfortable. Brands include Fiskars, GEKO and Proline, at 4shop.lv.
