I do have the N10 for all purpose.. Here in europe for 80€..most expensive one yet but the longer it lasts the more i dont care about the price... It is shaving sharp, holds edge well.. Overall nice working partner for bushcraft and fire maker
Steel in the heads are the same. From Fiskars: Thanks for your e-mail and question. The head and blade is made the similar way for both axes and the hardness is the same. Hope to have informed you accordingly.
@@ReviewOutdoorGear Glad to help. I always had much use of reading other people's comments as well. Yes, the info on websites can be confusing sometimes. Minor details are of extreme importance to many.
I have the X7 and the N10. Love both styles. I have axes by Gransfors Bruk, Council Tools and Nedfoss. But most of the time I grab one of these. Fiskars gets a bad wrap far too often. Great camp and bushcraft axes. They are a little softer than a GB or other premium brand but guess what - you can sharpen it! And it sharpens easily. I’m a fan.
Btw , I'm waiting for Joe X to opload his destruction video of the X7. He already has done one of the X10. The X7 will come up also. The X10 showed to be a very tough cookie.
This is the best axe I've ever owned. It's the perfect size to carry compared to the other 5 axes I own. "Ego Buys" Easy to sharpen to a high sharpness of original. There are many Ash Trees in Scotland and Ash is one of the toughest hardwoods trees to chop due to it being very springy. As such this Axe deals with it very well. The back and pounding stakes "Holding mine in my hands as we speak" the two lines you can see in video or pole @8:24 will disappear after use, just use it. I thought this was a different N7 axe as mine are now flush and never noticed it wasn't useful for smacking in stakes. I have never had issues with it. It is 4 years old now and still looks brand new. Sharpened after every camp use of chopping wood, then adding a little olive oil after sharpening. Never do I go camping without my trusty N7 and yet to find another more practical Axe than the N7. I have just been looking in a few of my video's using this very same Axe. I would highly recommend this axe. Oh and one more thing. I would certainly invest in a sharpening stone 1000 Grit is more than enough for this axe. Like life look after things and they will serve you well.
I would stick with the original in that size they are pretty much indestructable. This seems like adding the weakness of wood without the ease of replacement or full benefit with feel/looks.
Interesting, I was thinking they added strength to where the handle would break. You know ice hockey sticks break always at certain length from the end. You know how to replace the wooden piece on these?
@@ReviewOutdoorGear Im Swedish and imo the Fiskars is better because they are cheaper and will last longer but they are not as good looking as Gränsfors or Hultafors.
The trans-7; Identifies as. Traditional axe, but all the same utility and budget materials “under the hood”. PS. A wooden handled axe that you cannot easily rehang is absolutely useless. This N7 is a novelty item.

Love that hatchet. I used it in jungle, in my garden and chopping cow bones with very tiny chipping/rolled on the edge.
Very cool!

Good to know! Thanks for finding that out. I wonder why they list different information for the steels

Oh you want to say something also?
Not much good info is it.

Bonjour so which one is the best ?
If you have the money go for the N7.
Ok merci 👍
the one you sharpen properly and take with you
@@ReviewOutdoorGear there are any reasons to chose N7 over the X7?
Thinking about pickin one of these beauts up Thanks for the review.God Bless
Glad to help
I like older version becouse i don't need take care of handle (oil) if i am in winter wood working
The instructions say that you can't hit with the back of the axe
I would stick with the original in that size they are pretty much indestructable. This seems like adding the weakness of wood without the ease of replacement or full benefit with feel/looks.
People were bitching about not haveing a wooden handle. I love my splittingband chopping 23 inchers with polymer handles
Interesting, I was thinking they added strength to where the handle would break. You know ice hockey sticks break always at certain length from the end. You know how to replace the wooden piece on these?

Fiskars is not Swedish its Finnish.
Yes, did I say it was Swedish?
My bad just heard Swedish hand forged steel.
Ah yes. I was comparing the Fiskars steel to nice quality Swedish hand forged steel like Grans Fors and Hultafors
@@ReviewOutdoorGear Im Swedish and imo the Fiskars is better because they are cheaper and will last longer but they are not as good looking as Gränsfors or Hultafors.
Interesting. How do you think the steel quality compares? Also do they last longer because of the polymer handle?
I would rather get the N7 but its alot more expensive and I cant afford it so Ill get the X7
Your axe that got stolen has probably been used to "axe someone a question" by now. . .
😂
Only difference i see is the handle
The blade steel is higher quality.
@@ReviewOutdoorGear I haven't read that
The N7 has a double hardened blade whereas the X7 has single hardened steel.
@@ReviewOutdoorGear where did you read that?
The Fiskars website.

Not worth $88.
The X7 really is hard to beat.
@@ReviewOutdoorGear At least price wise
I would say no axe is worth that
@@jhtsurvival No axe is worth 88 bucks? Are you ok in the head buddy?
@@jachrome2418 are you?

I’d agree, except they’ll replace it for free for life. So not completely useless.
