How do I take care of my Estwing axe?

e.prender1.never chop into the ground or strike rocks with your axe,it could be your life line!!! 2.always sharpen it after use. 3.use a light oil to rub on it. 4. never leave it outdoors,put it in your tent or under a tarp.5.don't ever grind on it with a grinder. 6. don't put handle close to your fire. 7. when chopping, put your limb on a larger piece of wood to chop against,do not chop your piece of wood on the ground.8. keep your feet away from chopping area:wide straddle stance.9. put cover on axe when not in use. hope this helps.

One review said the handle was hollow. If true, should i just buy a wooden handle axe?

They are hollow but, my husband had his last one for over twenty years. Used hard as a saddle axe. It just finally gave up this last winter. So if they make them like they used to these are darn good to own

What steel is this made of?

All Estwing striking tools are made from 1055 steel. I called Estwing and asked. Very helpful peeps!

is it better quality than the standard estwing camp axe

Tho I don't own the standard one, I think it's the same indestructible ax, but in a mat black finish. The sheath is black cordura, I think the standard one may be in leather. Overall I like mine and opted for the black finish, which has been reasonably durable. Hope this helps.

… ein hohles Rohr als Stihl prellt stark beim Hacken. Habe auch die kurze Handaxt; diese ist massiv. Da prellt nix. Würde mir das Teil nicht nochmals kaufen.

Estwing what more do I have to say? I literally bought 2 of them, one of each size sold on Amazon. The company goes back over 50 years. Fantastic ax to have when you're going Into the Woods reliable durable dependable. Lightweight, you don't feel the vibrations when you CHOPPING. I'M PLANNING ON BUYING ANOTHER SET FOR MY BROTHER AND MY NEPHEW. YOU CANNOT GO WRONG WITH THIS BRAND THEY'VE BEEN AROUND FOR OVER 50 YEARS. THIS IS WHAT THEY SPECIALIZE IN NO VIBRATIONS WHEN CHOPPING DOWN ANY kind of wood because of the rubberized handle full tang construction. MY SON LOVES HIS AXE, AND I LOVE MINE thank you very much Adam Altman
