Looks a nice size and weight, did it come sharp? Most cheap axes are remarkably good but need significant time on the grinder to put a good cutting edge on them.

If its anything as good as their splitting maul.. get it.
Best £15 I ever spent and I use it very regularly and in a rather robust manner!

No edge is very poor with a resin on the edge from the rubber cover. dont mind spending time on sharpening.
I did the balance test and it falls head end.
