The is one of the favorite things I've ever purchased. It's an absolute must have tool when cutting and moving logs around. It makes it easy (and hands free) to lift, drag, and stand logs on their ends. There is almost no weight to it at all but still solid and durable and it feels really good in the hand. Well designed product.

Great for saving having to bend over, and adds a nice reach to grab firewood or logs from the bed of a pickup. Note, there's always a tradeoff. Too easy to bury deep in the wood and then you're trying to extricate the tip to recover the tool. They got it right.Warning: It's lightweight so don't think you're going to torque anything with this tool or be slapping it with a hammer or anything. I expect you'll break it. And it's not a peavey. But to pick up a piece of firewood, or slide a piece closer, it works great.

I bought three different hookaroonsMade by Council Tool (USA) 44$Made by Fiskar (Finland) 42$Made by Ochsenkopf (aka OX Head) (Germany) 66$The first one I got was the Council tool. It comes as an unfinished wood handle with red powder coated head. I didn’t like the color so I wire brushed off the paint and oiled the handle. Of the three, I think doing this gave it the best allure. It is the most dull of the three, but has a lot of material so it can be sharpened.Second I got the Fiskars. It is extremely lightweight because it is hollow. It is made from a strong plastic so weatherproof with a good handle that won't slip. This one is the sharpest of the three, but also seems to be the most fragile.Last I got the Ox Head. It is kind of like a hybrid of the other two. It is middle sized, sharper than the Council Tool but not as sharp as the Fiskars. Lacquer wood finish with a yellow painted head and handle.Honestly, at first I was not impressed with the Council Tool due to it being dull. I had a hard time getting it to bite small dry branch size cuts. It has really grown on me though. I thought I would like the Ox head the most because it was durable yet still able to stick into the wood. After taking all three up to the mountains I learned they all work really well, but for very different tasks. The Council Tool is excellent at dragging the biggest and heaviest logs. You can get a good full swing into the wood and it does stick just fine. Its having the longest handle makes pulling easiest. I do think it is only good for dragging wood though, not lifting. The Fiskars is the opposite. I couldn't get it to drag anything, plus it is way too short so I would have to hunch over to drag, which defeats the purpose of a hookaroon anyway. On the other hand, the Fiskars is the best for lifting wood above your waist due to its light weight and sharpness. So when I am trying to load rounds into the back of the truck or stack splits, the light weight of the Fiskars is perfect. The Ox Head is a good all around. I think it is kind of ugly at first, but I am sure I can sand the paint and finish off everything and oil it like I did the Council tool. It does seem sturdy. It is capable of both dragging logs around almost as well as the Council tool and it also can stick into rounds and splits well too (while being a little heavier than Fiskars). Im glad I bought all three to figure out the differences. All serve a specific purpose and all come from countries with reputations for producing high quality products.

This is really a great tool that the hub uses as he logs wood on our property and loves this! He also has a big one to yank logs around as well. It is sharp and he can maintain that aspect if need be, great size for his hands and the job intended for. The head is protected well and the weight helps with splitting. Hookaroon anything the hub loves! All their tools are designed perfectly for their function.

Good:- Performance: really good on CURED or DRY hard and soft wood.- As all others say.......its light. Thats good and bad- Tough. I have not tried to destroy it and paid attention to resist applying torsion or twisting to the " blade" when the point is buried into the endgrain of a large round. But have dragged, maneuvered, many large roumds (100lbs +/- ) now and it is still solid.- Handle: Grip/texture is pretty good and to me the swell/hook/flair at the end works well when needed.- Warranties. Fiskars has among the best in the business.Not so good:- This thing STINKS on green hardwoods! Especially with the factory point geometry, only thing it did well here is burying into heavy rounds for lifting or dragging.It bounces off of splits on face and endgrain strikes unless the split is larger and heavy, and then you have to whale on it to get it to set. If you do allot of green hard wood processing.....get something with more mass, a finer point, or be prepared to modify the point geometry on this tool as i did.- Hand shock: the light weight, hollow handle, combined with the necessity to swing it hard on green hardwood, i do experience some hand shock. Staying off of the end of the handle, choking up a bit and wearing good gloves apropriate for wood processing mitigates most of this though.All said......with some light file work to tune the point for more effective use in green hardwood and to make it more tolerable of less than perfect swing/form when setting the point......I would definately recommend this tool as a general use "sappie".Just be aware of its inherent characteristics and i think most people will not be disappointed.

Está hacha de dividir, la seleccioné de este tamaño para dividir troncos ya cortados en tramos de 30 cm. El diámetro de mis troncos es de unos 35 cm y los divido para hacer leña para mis fogatas. De momento no necesito algo más largo como la X-25 por lo que esta me es suficiente. El mango es muy ligero por lo que el peso de la cabeza se siente mucho más y esto debe favorecer a que el impacto sea mayor. El diseño de la cabeza para dividir en forma de cuña y con los Cachetes adicionales en verdad funcionan bien para dividir de un solo golpe. Esta no es un hacha de corte, si cortar es lo que necesitas pues ser la X7 que es corta o la X15 que es más larga. Tengo la hacha de corte X7 y como era la única que tenÃa, la usaba para dividir los troncos, pero resulta mucho más difÃcil pues su tendencia es a quedarse atorada debido a su perfil más delgado apto para cortar. Yo prefiero cortar los troncos con una sierra plegable como las Silky, tengo la Pocketboy y la BigBoy. Excelentes herramientas para cortar troncos, usas menos energÃa y mucho menos ruido. Fiskars es garantÃa, no te puedes equivocar con la marca.

Remembered my grandfather, many years ago, using a pickaroon and an axe at the woodpile/chopping block. He would switch from axe to pick and never bend while loading his wheel barrow.Received the Fiskars and went out to bring in some splits for the wood stove. Went to the pile with the wheel barrow and the hookaroon, didn't bend over once. Took a few swings to get used to it, what a great tool.The quality and the weight are perfect. I can see this will be used a lot !!! Worth every cent I paid for it.
