The Fiskars Brush Axe is a heavy-duty clearing tool that combines the slashing power of a machete with the swing leverage of an axe. At 19" overall with a precision-ground, hardened 9" curved steel blade, it's ideal for clearing brush, cutting trails, stripping logs, and felling small trees. The curved blade design is optimized for pull-cutting, and its one-handed grip leaves your other hand free to grab and pile cuttings as you work.
The blade features a rust-resistant, low-friction coating that glides through tough materials without sticking. The FiberComp® handle is lightweight for increased swing speed yet durable for lasting value, and the insert-molded head construction prevents loosening and overstrike breakage. A safety sheath is included for secure storage and transport. Backed by Fiskars' Lifetime Warranty.

What is a brush axe best used for?
The Fiskars Brush Axe is designed for clearing dense underbrush, cutting trails, stripping logs, and felling small trees. The curved blade excels at pull-cutting through tough, woody vegetation.
It's heavier and more powerful than a standard machete, making it far better suited for overgrown fence lines, reclaiming neglected garden areas, or hacking through thick brush that lighter tools cannot handle.
Why is one-handed use an advantage?
Using only one hand to swing the brush axe leaves your other hand free to grab, move, and pile cut brush as you go — making the clearing process significantly faster and more efficient than two-handed tools.
How do I maintain the blade?
After each use, wipe the blade clean of sap and debris. The rust-resistant coating protects the steel, but storing the axe dry in its included sheath will significantly extend blade life.
If the blade dulls over time, it can be resharpened with a whetstone or file along the original bevel angle.
Does this product come with a warranty?
Yes. The Fiskars Brush Axe is backed by Fiskars' full Lifetime Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
