Fiskars X27 splitting axe, 36 inch
A long-handled splitting axe with a hollow composite handle that has become a standard for firewood cutting. They sell steadily in fall but the used price is capped by how cheap they are new.
Estimated resale range (used)
$30 – $55
A ballpark, not a quote. Condition moves this number a lot, and so does who turns up to buy it. It isn't an appraisal and it isn't a dealer's offer.

What matters when you check it
- Inspect the handle for cracks or deep gouges near the head, where composite handles fail.
- Look at the blade edge for chips and rolled spots from hitting knots or the ground.
- Check that the head is tight with no wobble where it meets the handle.
Where the number comes from
Watching what these go for, not a record of sales. The range is a judgement call from what the same thing fetches secondhand. When an item has real sources behind it, they'll be printed here with the date they were checked.
Before you sell anything, look at sold prices rather than asking prices. Asking prices are wishes; sold prices are evidence.
