Pulaski Axe

Stump Grinder Alternative

I had some stumps and roots that I needed to get rid of and I thought instead of spending money on renting a stump grinder I could buy a tool that I could own and use for years and years. I didn’t want to use my good splitting axes because I knew I would hit rocks and dirt and a root cutting axe would get beaten up pretty good. When I asked for advice on a good axe for this job several people said I should get a Pulaski, and a few recommended this one. I like that it’s make in the US and the price was right. It’s a good tool. The adze end helped clearing dirt and roots and rock out of the way and I used it to cut through roots and to get under large pieces so I could pry up. It’s especially useful for chopping under a big hunk of stump to sever a taproot. The axe is easy to swing, a comfortable weight. I was skeptical of the safety grip handle but wanted to try it knowing I could just sand it off if I didn’t like it. It feels terrible, even with gloves on, as you slide your hands up and down the handle. I don’t know why anyone would like this safety grip. I’ll be sanding it off. I also think the palm swell could be a little bit larger. I chopped at my stump for 3 nights, about half an hour each night, and it’s all gone now. I’m looking forward to the next stump and I expect to get good use out of this axe for a lifetime.

The BEST American-made high quality tool! Warwood Tools will always be our #1 choice for tools such as these. Would buy this item again!

Been using this tool for turf removal

Been using this tool for chopping, hoeing and removing turf, works great, the heavy duty leather sheaths will keep the blades sharp while not being used and also for safety.
