Generally okay, but it would be better if there was a bit more weight at the head; it's a bit too light for chopping. Other than that, it works quite well for light work.
The Paracord Axe is designed as a lightweight, compact tool featuring a full tang construction. Its slim profile ensures convenient storage in a backpack and, when secured to a belt or vest, does not restrict mobility.
The blade is crafted from stainless steel and coated with a black protective finish to guard against corrosion. One edge of the head serves as a cutting surface, while the opposite side terminates in a sharp spike ideal for crushing or piercing tasks. The handle incorporates a feature for prying and extracting nails.
The set comes with a nylon sheath that includes internal reinforcement. Secured by three metal snaps, the sheath can be attached to straps up to 5 cm wide.

Very nice little axe, not too big, not too small, just right to attach to a backpack. It's well balanced and feels secure in the hand. It's quite sharp and it's a well-thought-out design because it not only cuts: the pickaxe part can be used for hammering and breaking ice, and the handle can serve as a crowbar, so it's a practical 3-in-1 tool. As for the paracord, it actually slips off, but I taped both the top and bottom with self-adhesive camouflage tape and the problem disappeared. Highly recommended.
-
Nice, lightweight axe. A bit poorly balanced, but weight was mainly what mattered to me, so I give it 5*.
-
Quite not bad, but you need your own wrap because the factory one slips off.
-
This is exactly what I was looking for. We'll see how it performs in the long run.
-
Nice little axe, I recommend it.
-
Useful for camping, bonfires, good steel, but not really suitable for throwing. The downside is the handle—the cord slips off after just a few swings, and then it's impossible to use without gloves.
-
Small, handy and effective. The only downside is that it's difficult to thread the cord through the hole in the handle (because of the weave), but other than that I have no complaints.
-
It works well by the campfire and when preparing a campsite, despite its small weight. The weave on the handle grips well in a bare hand as well as in a glove. It can be carried on a belt. Additional options – it pulls out nails and can be used to break the ice or as an ice axe, but that's only out of necessity. I recommend it.

Great handy little axe. It works perfectly in the field. Good quality. I recommend it :)
