Fiskars Hatchet 8-inch reviewDecember 14, 2008 Hans Berghmans(Flanders, Belgium) Excellent material for a sharp price; instant delivery status information via mail; very quick delivery
Nice little hatchet, but returning itMarch 22, 2008 dynoflyer(North Shore, MA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Nice little hatchet but it comes in a large, molded plastic snap-in case with a big carry handle on top. It would look good on the garage wall but it's too bulky to carry in a backpack. Sending it back and will look at an Estwing hatchet from Home Depot instead.

Great Hatchet!January 5, 2007 MES(St. Louis, Missouri USA) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Fiskars wood-splitting implements can't be beat. We have the axe and hatchet and they are the best we have ever owned --- and, with 5 fireplaces, chopping wood efficiently is important.
