Using your Esker Axe Safely

Esker’s Camp and Splitting Axes are powerful tools designed to make your wood cutting and splitting tasks more efficient, but care should be taken when using to avoid injury or damage - especially in remote or backcountry locales where medical attention can be hours to days away.

Always keep your axe sheathed when not in use, and never operate it under the influence of pharmaceuticals, alcohol, or cannabis. Ensure a safe perimeter free from other people and pets while swinging an axe. Kneeling when splitting wood is recommended to keep your shins and legs out of harm's way in the event of glancing strikes or missed swings. Regular care and maintenance of the blade edges and axe handles will ensure efficient and safe operation of the axes when in use. Following these guidelines will help to provide injury free use and operation of your Esker axe. and make the most of your outdoor adventures.
