Today I'm looking at the Scaxe 2 #survival #axe by Schrade
It's about 30cms (12 inches) long with a 9.7cm (3.8 inches) cutting edge weighing in at 622g (22 oz)
The axe head is stainless steel with a nice flat edge and the ergonomically shaped fibreglass handle holds a ferrocerium rod for #firestarting available here;

That's a good combination gear idea! You can't ever have too many ways to light a fire at your disposal.

Indeed Gareth, it was unusual trying to use an axe head to get a spark though As you can see, initially I had the angle wrong so the sparks were not hitting the birch bark I couldn't see as the axe head was in the way but wanted to test it as a one tool item, it's very well balanced too!

As it's a gift I don't know what the price was but the tool itself feels great and looks well made on first impressions, having the ferro rod is a nice addition but I'd probably use a knife spine as a striker rather than the axe head as I couldn't see with the first couple of pulls where the sparks were going but that's user error 😉 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment buddy hope you have a great weekend!

I just purchased my SCAXE2 today, so haven't used it yet. I love the feel of it in my hand, not too light, not too heavy, going to be a good camp axe. I had trouble getting Fero rod to spark until i cleaned the paint off of it, then worked well. The Fero rod is nice and big, it's not flimsy. I don't like the plastic sheath much, but it does work well. Thanks from Kentucky, USA :) Also, i subbed :)

You have to scrape the coating off every ferro rod before use bud. But seeing as this comment was 3 years ago Im guessing you already know this now!

Great review Roo and what a decent present! Up here the Husqvarna is a little bit cheaper and slightly lower weight. I'd have a knife anyhow for the ferro rod
@PreparedCamping 5 жыл бұрын
Hi Huples thanks for watching mate first impressions it's a sturdy little axe that's very well balanced, as you can see I've not used an axe head for a ferro rod before and got it lined up all wrong it felt a bit odd and I couldn't see where the sparks were going initially as the blade head shielded my view! But you live and learn, like you say I'd probably stick to a regular striker or spine of a knife so I could see what's happening easier, hope you're well over there in Canada Take care Roo
