The council took axe is a boys axe, they’re not really meant for splitting, they’re just scaled down Dayton axes with a particular blade geometry, really meant for chopping aka falling smaller trees and bucking limbs, they also lack a hardened poll, meant for driving plastic wedges for falling big trees but not great as a hammer or for driving steal splitting wedges. Council tool for make better options for bushcraft.
@@Saber_Outdoors also depending on when your boys was made may effect it’s abilities to split, September of 2023 they updated the design which they claim improved it’s splitting ability. Idk if this applies to all its variants or just the sport utility line.
Your technique is horrible!! Estwing had you chopped properly would have thrown massive chips! The Coucil Tool would split in one hit had you hit it better!

If all blades were equally sharp, would you change your best to worst list?
Possibly. Guess I'll need to sharpen and retest one of these days
amazing comparison, my favourit is defenetly the cold steal axe but the camp axe did suprisingly well
Thanks
HYPER TOUGH, let’s Goooo!!!!!!
@@viktor-rp7xl LoL
Thanks for Sharing, another great and informative video.
I would like to see the test with all axes sharpened
@@kovacmordus8899 maybe one day I'll do that
Estwing! Steel handle puts it on top for me.
Its a big advantage. Short of doing something foolish the handle should last forever
@@Saber_Outdoorshow's the vibration on the Estwing. And the overall weight? Is it heavier than the others due to the steel handle?
@curtis3363 weight is not much different than the others and the rubber handle does a good job absorbing shock.
I feel like this video should be titled "Bucking with crocs"...
@@whitesparrow4907 LoL 😂
I'll stick with my Council Tool 2 lb. Wood-Craft Pack Axe, 24"
Ok

I'm just now getting into bushcrafting. I'll try it out for that

Choppn n Crockn. Same here brother

It's hard to take you seriously when you are wearing Crocs and chopping wood with dull axes.
Fair

@@jamesnelson1443 motto of the channel is functional not professional. I chopped equally bad with all of them
@@Saber_Outdoors😂
This is not a fair comparison as some axes were sharpened more than others.
Which one do you like best
