He can chop (notice I don't say split) for hours on end with our Fiskars X11 Splitting Axe (which is actually a hatchet) - the head on it weighs 1.85 pounds and the overall weight is 2.43 pounds. That's according to the internet - I've never weighed the thing. It's kind of heavy for a kid his size, but he is determined and does fine with it. Knowing he could handle that, I wanted to find something lighter so he'd be able to cut down little trees and things too. Swinging sideways is a lot harder when the axe is too heavy for you. He weighs about 40 pounds, so a 2.5 pound axe is 1/16 of his bodyweight - that would be like me swinging an 8 pound axe. Ok for splitting, almost impossible for felling. Anyways - we have one of those super common fiberglass handled 1.25 pound hatchets too, and he swings that thing no problem.
Long story short, this seemed like about the right weight, and the right length. I was stoked that such a thing exists - he's going to be so proud of his "double bladed axe" just like Paul Bunyan.
I don't know what kind of quality this thing is really - if it holds up, great! It's actually a pretty handy size and weight for a man to use one handed. Would be handy on a trail or camping, something like that. I'm not going to be giving it a real thorough inspection until after his birthday - it's in a secret hiding place for now. I did pull it out and look at it when it arrived - seems fine. Nothing glaringly awful about it. Whether it's worth ~$60 - I can't say really. For me it was, because the look on his face will be priceless.
What I didn't like, heart wood on the handle as well as diagonal grain. The heart wood was at the top, where the handle flared just before going into the axe head. Not really structural, so I decided to make an over strike collar, which I tried to dye to match the sheath. Also didn't care for the edge (either edge really) which took some work to get sharp.
I used some linseed oil on the handle, then rubbed in beeswax. Very happy with the final result. Really sharp axe, looks old yet is brand new and highly functional. I would recommend due to the quality materials & low price as long as you don't mind working on the edges a bit.

I've heard in the past that condors handles were quite iffy with a diagonal or horizontal grain. The grain on this is pretty well in line with the axe.
