[QUOTE="mountainmandan, post: 4168670, member: 77574"] No disrespect, but if you hit a rock with any kind of ax, you will chip or dent it. It does not matter if it is world class metallurgy or not. It is not hard to sharpen, so I don't view it as a really big issue. I have never used a high quality euro maul, so I don't know if it is better or not, however, I am at about 80 cords, yes you heard that right, 80 cords split with my fiskers, and I am satisfied. Also I noticed when I first got it, I did not like it very much, the swing mechanics are different, so if you have tried it and found it wanting, you might have been swinging it with a similar technique to a maul. Again no disrespect, just sharing my experience. Dan [/QUOTE]
