Just bought one and spent 45 minutes with a file on the edge profile. Then my 30 minutes with my cheap 4 sided diamond stone and later my 3 sided stone and a leather strop. Then sanded it down the handle a bit with 220 and coated it with BLO. It is absolutely Razor sharp and it splits dry oakwood for my small smoker perfectly... I’ve tried wedges and another standard small axe with much less success.

Thanks! Is that a Catteraugus Q225 knife in the background?

The poll is not hardened, so do not use it to hammer! Husqvarna are made for workmen who use their axes daily. They want their axes how they like them, so they leave it up to them to finish the axe how they want it. You can buy 3 of these axes to the price of one Gransfors bruks! So to me they literally charge the price of two axes just to finish them. Watch how long it takes them to finish ghe grinding. And if you do buy GB axe, look at the grind under a LED light, and see how many bevels they have. And they are using industrial linishers! Husqvarna axes are made in the same forges!
