With more blade penetration on each swing, you can chop more firewood in less time, with less effort and hand strain. This superbly designed, compact axe defies the concept of size matters. Trail clearing when you want to travel fast and light. Plus, it's crafted with all the fine details of its bigger counterparts, including a unique wedge-shaped blade that takes fewer swings to bust through the toughest timber. The FiberComp fiberglass composite handle is many times stronger than traditional wood handles, yet its also light in weight and impervious to weather. Fiskars insert molded design prevents the head from ever loosening or separating from the handle. And a lifetime guarantee means you can trust to really hack it.

Review: Awesome Little Axe - This thing is awesome. It’s the perfect size for camping so I don’t have to carry a full size axe. Splits wood with ease. It’s compact, sharp, and weighted perfectly. Love it! Review: Great splitting tool ! - I already had the 36 inch model but wanted this smaller 17 inch Fiskars for splitting kindling. The head is a bit smaller and lighter than the longer handled Fiskars splitting axes . And that is good because I wanted something lighter . This works great - it is sharp and the way the head is designed it the wood pops apart . This is replacing a smaller hatchet I had that also had a shorter handle. No problem choking up on the handle on this if you want to not grap it at the very end - it works well . The other reason I replace the old wood handled hatchet is the head was always coming loose. This one is molded on and should not ever have that problem. I tried it on some bigger chunks of wood - not huge - it won't do that of course but it does split some medium size pieces of wood no problem . But mostly I use it inside near the stove just to make small kindling for the fire. I very much like that this is made in Finland - what can you get made in Finland these days. Most of the other Fiskars stuff is now made in China so nice that this still is sourced at their source.

AMAZON sells a good 7HP Heavy Duty 212cc Gas Powered 3:1 Multi-Function Pro Wood Chipper Shredder https://www.amazon.com/GreatCircleUSA-Heavy-Duty-212cc-Powered/dp/B075SG6372/ref=sr_1_4?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1538798975&sr=1-4&keywords=wood+chipper This can be very messy but is made easier by cutting section with a chainsaw. I use the STIHL MS 271 FARM BOSS 20" bar. **Q: Brand new axe split a dozen dry logs. Corners of blade already slightly chipped. Never hit rocks or hard objects. Is this normal?** A: I get chips dings and rolled edges regularly with mine. I need to sharpen it after about an hour or so. It performs very well, but I wish it was a bit more durable. I am splitting hard woods and I am don't go easy on it at all. I am happy that the handle has held up even when I smashed it into a log on a freezing cold day. **Q: how to replace handle on Fiskars Axe?** A: Fiskars products are warranted to the consumer purchaser to be free of defects in material and workmanship for as long as the consumer owns the product. Warranty does not cover sharpening, normal wear and tear, environmental factors, accidental damage, misuse, industrial/commercial use. well after a quick look at the warranty i think you may only get a replacement if it was shipped that way if it was wear and tear or anything like that it isnt their responsibility **Q: Is the X27 (36" handle) too long for a short (5'2") female?** A: I am 5'6" and I thought this X27 was too heavy and too long for me and returned it. I am a former member of the US military and found this 36 inch long axe very cumbersome and difficult to raise over my head. I bought a smaller model with a 3 pound head and a shorter handled (28 inches long.) I can only assume the small and average sized women who are saying this axe is fine are super amazons, which I am not. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome Little Axe *by G***G on July 1, 2026* This thing is awesome.

Great quality tool ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice little hatchet for kindling *by D***Z on June 14, 2026* It’s a nice little hatchet. I use it to cut kindling and it does an excellent job. Came sharp with a nice protective case that locks the blade in place which is helpful. If I ever manage to break this one, I’d buy another for sure. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fiskars X11 Splitting Axe Hatchet, 17" Tree Branch Cutter and Wood Axe for Small Logs with Shock-Absorbing Handle - Fiskars 12" Hookaroon - Non-Slip Grip Handle with Pointed, Angled Blade - Landscaping Tool for Rotating, Dragging, Stacking Logs - Black/Orange --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/2314863-x11-splitting-axe-17-for-small-logs-kindling-and-one](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/2314863-x11-splitting-axe-17-for-small-logs-kindling-and-one) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-08-12*
