It seems that everything is made poorly these days.  This product has the quality it always had and has a feel of quality.  I use it to split wood for my wood smoker doing briskets, ribs, and pulled pork.  Can use one handed or slide down to the end of the handle to use two handed for more accurate splitting.  I oiled the sheath that can with it to protect it as well.  A product you will pass on to your grandchildren.
