Schrade survival axe

[Scythe13]

I, for one, did find the cutting ability of MCavity's hand axe to be much better than my 'hawk. However, having said that, we'll compare the 2 on the next camp mate. I've been modding my 'hawk a 'little' and it's a bit better than before.

Having said the above challenge, Schrade do make very good equipment for the cost! You get a lot more bang for your buck. Also, as a straight out of the box item, it is sharp and ready to go. Pop it open and you're ready to start chopping. With it being a smaller handle, you'd expect less power, and you do. However, the angle of contact was really good, and as a result, the force you put went straight through the wood.

It's not my bag, but if you're an axe person, this is a very safe bet. For the price, and what you get in return, you can't go wrong.

My only issue, and it's not just this axe, it's all that have this feature, a synthetic handle can render an item useless if it breaks. This is my only criticism.

Overall, 4.5*

Beat on it for a while MCavity, and that'll be a much better test for it.
