I am 69 years old woman, and I use Fiskars axe, which is the best. Fiskars products are from Finland, and they are the best in the world!
Smoking ciggys, drinking beer ,doing fire wood ,finally a wood channel that is like the way I spend in the yard ,👍👍
Love this guy. Drinks and smokes while chopping. A real man!
I have used this axe for years splitting firewood.. It IS all it’s hyped up to be.
Cherry is by far my favorite wood, the smell, the crackle/pop, dries quickly and I smoke meat with it too.
You smoke wood with wood?
Scheib glad you liked the Fiskars X27. After working 10 years and retiring from Fiskars I don’t know to many people that don’t like their ax’s. The best part is if you happen to overstrike the handle and break it the ax is guaranteed for life. See ya at the Firewood Frenzy
Thank you for your service!
The head blew right off mine on the first Miss strike when my friend tried it. I can't say I'm all that impressed with it. My most impressive splitter in the stable is an 8 lb East Wing Maul with American hickory handle. It was $35 on Amazon. My 200 plus dollars helko werk is a POS also. The bit never stays tight. Halco will not warranty this non-performing product. They informed me they are aware that it does not stay tight however they are not willing to do anything about😢. Even worse knowing it constantly comes loose they continue to advertise and sell it. Supposedly the fiskars has a lifetime warranty. I sent them a picture of the head and the handle separated. So far I've just been left hung out to dry. East Wing 8 lb hickory handle maul for the WIN in my book✌️🇺🇸 thanks for taking the time to make this video and share it.
I really like my X27. I still a lot of work, but it gets it done and doesn't break.
I was taught to make these when 7yrs. Never we had Fiskars at our Summerplace. Now all are Fiskars.
Good call on Ricky’s channel. That axe did a great job at popping that cherry apart!
I have absolutely destroyed splitting mauls in my day.....wooden, fiberglass, and even metal!! I bought the fiskars x27 about 3-4 yrs ago and it's amazing!! Only maul that I haven't broke...still looks pretty much new!! Stay safe my friend 🍻
I am up to 3 different Fiskars axes and mauls and I loves them all.. I used them and 1 in particular I beat the heck out of it..
I have the x25 and x27 I like the 25 more for some reason I can blow thru some wood with one for sure
I use the splitting axe in tandem with their maul to handle just about anything PA’s woods have to offer (except Elm; ef that noise).
I’d say the axe gets about 90% of the use. I like it for straighter rounds, without many knots. It’s great for squaring larger rounds off into more manageable pieces, and far more effective than trying to quarter larger rounds with the maul.
What I love the maul for is knotty pieces, as well as for its sledge end that can be used to drive in metal wedges.
Military grade, meets specs but is the cheapest you can get. Great video!!! Nice splitting. Have a Safe Day
@DavidEdwards: Exactly, these are the specifications, now find the Lowest Bidder to fulfill the contract!🤣
Bless’ns to ya, Tedd
Yeah, everyone I know who has tried a decent Fiskars splitter says they are the go to. Their warranty makes it hard to disagree. I have a couple. They work great!
I've had my x27 since January and I've split about 3 cords, only had 1 or 2 I couldn't split. But in fairness there were knots running thru them. I was able to split them enough to get them in my wood stove.
Check out the Fiskars IsoCore maul. The X27 is fantastic for longer periods of splitting due to the miller lite weight of the axe head. The Fiskars maul will do a better job going through the tougher stuff. I've used them side by side and the Fiskars maul does a better job blowing through rounds.
You wouldn’t think it would be but cherry can be a bear to split. They almost never grow straight and have the weird quality of being a softer hardwood that your maul sinks right into. It’s not like a round of oak that once you get a crack, it just pops apart.
Hello Sir - I've had the X27 for many and I'm really impressed by it.
Things may have changed since I bought mine but on the accompanying label it states not to move the axe from side to side when the axe is in the wood.
All the best 👍
Ok I’ve been looking for awhile at that axe……..all the wood ticks seem to love it……time to buy!
Nicely done, Buckin Billy Ray would be proud of you. Need to check his channel, he splits a lot of firewood by hand. Cheers my friend
Hey Brother, nice review 👍🏼
Think’n Mr. VanDeusen could make a great Wedge Bang’r out of the Ol Mil-Spec chopper.
If it was part of a Pioneer Kit, it would have been a cutting profile, which is handier in the woods. Make a Short Handled Carbine out of it😜.
24-28” handle makes them easy to pack and carry, yet big enough to make a good swat at a wedge.
Bless’ns to ya, Tedd
I got set of 3 fiskars axes they are extremely sharp and split like butter my x27 is probably 10 years old
Best axe I ever put in my hands I split alot of wood by hand I live in Canada and heat with wood
The reason your not getting one strike splits is because you’re splitting directly on the ground and the ground is absorbing the blow!! Try setting one round on top of another and see the difference, get a big round of say 30” by 12” thick and keep it as a chopping block. 👍😜
The chopping block is the biggest farce in splitting wood.
@waynejohnson9855 have you ever used one? Major difference. Much better to split on a hard surface, unless you're a moron 🤷♂️
@@ChrisLascari I have and it’s a joke, how much do you split in a year and how does it work to get 20 inch plus chunks up on a block because I’m splitting a lot of wood that size?
@@ChrisLascari no answer? I’ve probably split more wood with a fiskars in one year than you will split in ten. That might make you the moron.
@waynejohnson9855 no answer? I do t sit here all day waiting to see if someone responded to my comments like a moron. You can sit there and keyboard warrior lies about your wood splitting all you want. I k ow what I do with my fiakars and chipping Blick, you keep pounding that wood intonthe ground, felcher!
The Fiskars are about nearly indestructible. I've hit with them like I have with the wooden handle axes and they show only a small scuff mark, whereas the wooden handle axes would have been shattered.
I broke the handle on my x27 when splitting icy logs in -8 degree weather. I'd had the axe for 15-ish years at that point and used it regularly, because I like chopping wood (great for letting out some steam).
Fiskars replaced it for free. all they wanted was a photo of the broken handle. I even got to keep the old axe.
I think I might try to make a new handle for that, just for shits and giggles :D
Fiskars is great with their warranty. Wouldn't hurt to try a handle on it.
Nice job Scheib! This is my go to axe. I have the maul, but rarely use it. They eat cherry, maple, and black walnut like crazy. I found if you knock the edges of the round off, it busts up the inside like nothing. The other thing I’ve found is to keep the cutting edge sharp.
Yes it’s definitely a good axe. I brought one yesterday and it works really good great for splitting stumps and splitting red gum and logs of wood. Really good axe doesn’t break and it’s very durable
Nice review. I have been intentionally avoiding that axes because of the plastic handle. Now I may give them a chance.
You should seams like it will last forever
Handles will break but they replace it with a new axe, I had one I split 150 full cord with before it broke.
Fiskars is from Finland! This is how you chop wood! Really Finnish way for an American!😃
I’ve split about a cord of wood of eucalyptus with an X27 and it finally gave out and the handle split off from the head. It did very well for a long time.
Scheib you'll like the Fishars I narrowed my buddies last fall.Well he's still looking for it.I see you also split by the can of Miller.The pile behind you is about a 6pk.
Scheib, your making the axe look good, 💪🪵😎🇺🇸
I'm also in the Military, military gear is always supplied by the "cheapest bidder"
But the government normally pays full price for it plus another 20% or so.
@Jason no doubt. These contracts always seem to go to relatives or friends or friends of friends. Sometimes they keep buying something that is already obsolete but it’s already in the contract.
Thanks! Been looking to buy one of these myself.
THANKS MAN !!!! Its very sturdy and works great not sure on the really big stuff yet but when I get some more ill have to give it a try.
Hey, nothing but respect for you... If you're close to Minnesota we should do a split off
Much easier to flake it instead of center hit. Use the rings and hit maximum 1/4 way to center. Work around the center, not through it. I split 30” ish that way, no problem. And I split oak, not soft wood. I use biggest Fiskars axe. Also works better to put the rounds on another round so there is no spongy ground under. Enjoy the beer and watch the toes.
Fiskars is good stuff. Been using there products for years. Good video
Fiskars axes are from Finland, but nice to see that your "four wheel" trailer ULTRATEC is also from Finland! I also have both :D
Always something satisfying about swinging an axe or maul.
Why didn't you split the wood at 90 degrees? It would certainly reduce your overstriking.
Need to get me one of those. Congrats on 5000 subs. Just bumped pass 500 myself. Thanks for your service and the watch. Nebraska WoodSTR.
Thanks bud
Looks like a pretty good splitter, maybe just slightly slower than the gas one
Cool vid man , I’m destroying my axe/ maul handle…, it’s got 2 rolls of ele. Tape +. Wrapped on it 🤣🤣🤣. Probably time for a fiskars👍. Thanks for the mention Don , stay the way you are my friend, You’re probably like me and don’t change for anyone 🤣🍺🍺🍺🇺🇸👍. Later O.W.S.
I can smell that cherry thru the TV. I use a good bit of cherry in my smoker to cook with. Low and slow with some pork. Wooo!
I have the same axe it’s definitely a good one!🤘🍻👍
Scheib is a GOD
Looks like the real thing
Those fiskars rip thru the wood I love mine
I split alot of big oak with a fiskars isocore 8lb maul and its held up great over the last 3 years.only thing I don't like is that you've gotta wear gloves with it. If you dont that grippy surface will blister you something terrible. It splits as good as my old council tool maul or my m6,but without all the handle replacing.
Would be good if you did a direct comparison with a budget $30 splitting axe. Do 1 log x27 another budget.
Nice review Scheib . Do you use the ATV trailer much that was in the back ground ?
Good morning everyone
I will have to check out the Fiskars. I will definitely not be buying any axes from Walmart.
Good job with the Fiskars, you made it look easy. Do you get much cherry in the woodyard.
thanks i don't get much although i haven't been looking for it either.
If you put it the round wood over to another round wood it will be more effective the hit.
Công việc tốt, chúc bạn ngày mới trang ngập hạnh phúc
Fiskars X27 is best of the best, but hidraulic wood log splitter is better .
Have you compared it against a splitting wedge and 16lbs sledge?
Super random question, but what pants are those? Looks perfect for outdoorsy type shit!
They are ridge cut pants from tractor supply
@@OutsidewithScheib Right on, thanks man!
👍👍
Hi scheib, what's cherry like to burn? That sure is an awesome axe 🪓 👏
Cherry burns great and smell's even better.Just burned some over the weekend.
@@paulwagner5367 good to know..
Military grade just means made with the cheapest components by the lowest bidder (or the bidder with the most connections) and lasts just long enough to barely get the job done. In the civilian/commercial world, it's just a marketing buzzword.
Yep
And people look at you funny when you chuckle and grab something never used by the government.
Didn’t know you was in the military what branch was you in and how many years
I am in the army national guard for 23 years now 17 more to go.
How does the axe chop?
not sure haven't used it to chop anything really
Chopping block... try it
Десет удара за цепене на един бор...😂моята кована селска брадва ,прави това с един удар😂😂
The aim is terrible. Il teach you when I get home.
Ahahaha with cigarets💪
