Fiskars Norden N12 19" Splitting Axe FG382831

The Fiskars Norden N12 19" Splitting Axe is a compact powerhouse engineered for efficiency, durability, and refined performance in the field or at the woodpile. Designed with precision and built to handle demanding tasks, the N12 is perfect for splitting smaller logs and kindling with clean, controlled strikes. Whether you're working at camp or prepping firewood for the hearth, this axe delivers the performance you need without unnecessary bulk.

The heart of the Norden N12 is its carbon steel axe head, finished with a tough anti-friction black coating that reduces resistance and helps the blade power cleanly through wood. The 6" cutting edge is sharp, balanced, and optimized for splitting tasks, with a wedge-like geometry that transfers force exactly where you need it. It's built to withstand repeated impact and stay reliable in varied weather conditions.

Fiskars integrates its modern FiberComp Overstrike protection into the traditional Hickory handle for unmatched strength and impact resistance. This overstrike guard shields the critical joint area between the axe head and handle, greatly extending the tool’s lifespan and adding a level of safety you won’t find in standard wood-handled axes. The handle itself is shaped for comfort and leverage, giving you a firm, confident grip for maximum swing control.

At 19" overall and weighing 2 lbs., 13 oz., the Norden N12 strikes the perfect balance between size and striking power. It’s easy to carry, fast to deploy, and capable of handling tough jobs without wearing you out. This mid-sized design makes it ideal for use around the campsite, cabin, or backyard—wherever precise, efficient wood splitting is needed.

The included protective blade cover keeps the cutting edge safe and ready when stored or carried, while also ensuring added safety during transport. With premium materials and a hybrid construction that bridges traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation, the N12 is built for years of hard use. Order it today from SMKW!
