I like the shape of this little axe. At 2 pounds(is that with the handle?) it could be ok. I would enjoy trying it. I can't put out the cash and at the price, I would want to play with it first. I would ask for just the head and make my own handle. I wonder if they sell just the heads? It is like a mini hewing axe.
