This guy got forgotten in the yard for the summer and the rubber turned to goo. The isocore is doing the same.

Very nice. Making me think I really need to be more patient and try harder handling axes.

Seems I spied that axe or similar on someone's website but the pics they included did not show clear picks of the poll.

The handle is way too crazy wide, I suspect to reduce warranty claims from breaking with low quality wood, but I found one with decent grain and it could be narrowed and shortened into a 'banger. 4.5lb.

I got it stuck bad multiple times and had to kick it out. Didn’t break or work loose

Is that for throwing or for kindling? Looks nice.

Thanks. It's advertised as a camp/throwing hatchet. It has a hardened poll for driving tent stakes and such but also meets the required specifications for a throwing axe. I bought it just to try my luck at throwing.
