Perfect physics and advanced ergonomics give the axes in Fiskars X-series™ a very special feeling X32 is a splitting ax with a slightly larger head that has been balanced and adapted to the body to cut with optimal strength and speed. The innovative ultra-sharp steel head has been designed to split wood more efficiently. The steel has also been double-hardened so that the precision-ground edge stays sharp longer. The wider, wedge-shaped head of the ax provides more power and makes the ax easier to detach from the wood. A friction-reducing coating makes the head slide more easily through the wood, while protecting against rust. The ax head is over-molded to prevent it from coming off the shaft. The axes of the X-series™ are almost impossible to break, thanks to the extremely strong and at the same time light FiberComp™ shafts that absorb shocks and provide superb protection against splashes. The grip zone of the shaft is larger than standard and has been provided with strategic SoftGrip™ structure. The curved end provides a secure grip on the ax throughout the swing
