Fiskars X17 Forged Steel Blade 23.5″ Splitting Axe
Our X17 Splitting Axe is an easy-to-handle, easy-to-transport choice for anyone who needs to split small- to medium-sized logs with power and speed. Like every X-Series™ Hatchet or Axe, the X17 combines perfected weight distribution, advanced blade geometry, an ultra-sharp edge and virtually unbreakable design to maximize your performance. This combination of features allows the blade to disperse wood more effectively, offering more one-strike splits with each swing. Since you can split wood more easily with the X17, each job requires less time, less effort and less hand strain.
Ideal for splitting small- to medium-sized logs, designed for maximum efficiency to give you more one-strike splits
Perfected balance and power-to-weight ratio increases swing speed to multiply power, much like an aluminum baseball bat
Advanced bevel convex blade geometry adds power and makes the blade easier to remove from wood
Unique head shape disperses wood from the blade for clean splitting
Proprietary blade-grinding technique provides a sharper edge for better contact and cleaner cuts
Hardened forged steel blade stays sharp longer than traditional axes, low-friction blade coating powers through wood and prevents head from getting stuck
Inseparable insert-molded head will not loosen and prevents overstrike breakage
Shock-absorbing FiberComp® handle is lightweight yet stronger than steel to prevent overstrike damage, textured non-slip grip reduces hand strain and improves control
Designed in Billnas, Finland, building on more than three-and-a-half centuries of the world’s best forged tools
