Do a websearch on this. I saw it in a knife magazine this morning in Books-A-Million while waiting for my Aunt at the dentist.I think when they are available I might have to give one a try. If it's half as good as it looks it will be usable.

Too many moving parts for an axe, fold up or not. In early April I loosened the epoxy bond on my hatchet while splitting wood, while it had no moving parts. I couldn't imagine the rivets holding up longer than a week in my hands.
There's a post on this one in the Saws and Axes sticky. Post 190

Interesting looking ax. I don't know about the fact that it is hinged though. Seems to me that could lead to problems.
it kind of resembles a wallmart folding shovel. one single pin to hold the axehead on the handle.3 chops i would have it brokenQuote:

I think one of you Moderators should contact Gerber and get one for a pass around and each that gets it writes a review and if it passes with flying colours Gerber would like to use the website reviews in their advertising. Just thinking outloud.
I went to Gerber's website, and pulled the Kick Axe up and read about it. I will be waiting to read your review on it after you have used it.
If only it were that easy - then I'd have a house full of stuff. *looks around wondering where all this stuff came from*Quote:

Wait! Wait! Wait! We need three! Two for QC review and one to pass around if the first two pass the Q.C. tests. Public service and all ......... :innocent:Quote:

hehehe, I thought that was kinda funny, I can just picture some poor guy trying to chop down a tree with a folding knife. hahahaahahaahaha.Quote:
