HUSQVARNA 1600S Splitting Axe

Efficient Log Splitting with Precision Design

The Husqvarna 1600S Splitting Axe is built for smooth, efficient firewood splitting with less physical effort. Designed for medium-sized logs, its balanced construction and durable materials make it a reliable tool for everyday use. Whether you’re preparing logs for a stove or building a woodpile, this axe is engineered for effective results.

Optimised Head Shape and Non-Stick Coating

The specially profiled axe head features a non-stick coating to reduce friction during use. This lets the blade glide smoothly into wood, increasing speed and minimising resistance. The geometry of the head concentrates force into the cut, giving deeper splits with less effort.

Balanced for Better Performance

The balance point sits close to the axe head, offering perfect weight distribution and controlled swings. This balance improves power output without needing extra strength, allowing more efficient splitting with fewer strikes. The lightweight shaft further enhances swing speed, making the tool powerful yet easy to handle.

Durable and Long-Lasting Materials

The fibre-reinforced PA shaft offers high strength and durability for consistent performance over time. A stainless steel insert protects the lower shaft from damage, extending the axe’s working life. Built to handle repetitive use, this axe withstands demanding conditions without compromise.

Practical Hammer Function Built In

On the reverse side of the head, a hammer function is included for use with splitting wedges. It’s ideal for driving plastic or wooden wedges but is not designed for steel wedges. This added versatility makes the 1600S a multi-functional tool for wood preparation tasks.

Built for Comfort and Consistency

From the non-slip shaft to the ergonomic design, this axe supports comfort during long splitting sessions. The Husqvarna 1600S delivers reliable, controlled power every time you swing.
