Reviews

Swiss Military Surplus Reserve Axe, New is rated 4.4 out of 5 by 34.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Andmyaxe from Nice Handle This is a relatively inexpensive axe and the price is basically appropriate, a little high. Axe head is way too heavy. The edge is so off center to the point where I wonder if it's supposed to be that way to make it split wood better or something. The eye was off center too though. The handle was actually awesome, great sanded texture and beautiful straight grains, and almost worth the price of the axe by itself except that it's too short to be of much good. I agree with the comments that consistently come up in the negative reviews for this.

Rated 5 out of 5 by OldGrunt from Excellent pack axe Handle is 24.5" from the end to the head, good feel and excellent grain. Wedge is large and well set to keep the head were it is, all flush cut and painted.Blade is reasonably well prepared for sharpening. Good profile, should bite deep without any trouble.Great Swiss quality, will be taking this thing camping next time.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Rance Gearhardt from seconds The title describes it, this axe is clearly a "seconds" that didn't stand a chance to get past quality control. The handle has several areas where the grain looks like it will split soon enough from chopping. The head had the worst off-center grind I ever seen and the edge was also ground wavey and off-center and dull as well. I lathered the handle with linseed oil and refaced the edge so it looks ok. If the axe was at say a flea mkt, I would of not paid $27 for it. Just barely satisfied. It is heavy and splits kindling like a champ. Expect to get out a file and reshape and take a close look at the handle, you will see where the weak spots are. My handle has a small crack half way up on the grain and will most likely crack right there from usage. Nothing I can do to prevent it. Rehandling is in the future, no way around it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Monte from Top Quality Material The quality of this axe much higher than I see in the local hardware stores. The wood is smooth hardwood; the metal is beafy. I am going to get at least one more because of the quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by STEVE from BEST QUALITY YET THESE AXES CAME THROUGH IN SPOTLESS CONDITION, UNLIKE THE EARLIER BATCHES WHICH MAY HAVE HAD SHELF WEAR. EXCELLENT QUALITY AS WE WOULD EXPECT FROM THE SWISS.
