My axe was just one hanging around the house. I have tried a number of others and none fit like the one I use on a regular basis, that may just be the reason. Some are too heavy and others have been too light. The snow and nealley looks very close to the one I use, it is also one of the heavier ones I tested, maybe they make a lighter one. I had to check twice at the price of $512.99 on one of the above listed.
The axe is one of the least sharpened in my tool box, a file and a bit of stone work. I think the profile of the cutting edge has much to to with how an axe works.
