Gerber Splitting Axe

With a handle even longer than Gerber's Extra Large Axe, the Gerber Splitting Axe is the longest axe that Gerber makes. Designed for extra power when splitting logs or chopping roots, this axe is terrific for homeowners with fireplaces or wood-burning stoves, as well as landscapers or even weekend lumberjacks. Built to withstand the abuse known for breaking wooden handles, the Splitting Axe features a 3.15" forged steel blade for excellent edge retention, with the head firmly encapsulated into a strong 28.5" Fibercomp handle.  Weighing over 5.4 lb., the extra weight increases the striking power generated from each swing.  For heavy-duty tasks, the Gerber Splitting Axe is an excellent choice!
