Vario Splitting Axe

Handmade in Germany
The Vario Splitting Axe is surprisingly powerful for its size, thanks to a dual wedge head design that improves splitting power and efficiency while preventing the head from getting stuck or pinched in logs. A 3 ¼ pound head and comfortable 30 inch handle keep the wielder fresh during long splitting sessions. This axe will handily outperform others in its class. A great choice for the seasonal splitter who relies on a wood-burning stove to heat their home through the winter. ​ Read about Vario Care and Maintenance here.
