I have a Gerber Sport Axe and I'm very pleased with it. I was wondering if anyone has the smaller Back Paxe and how it measures up; Thanks!
 
I have the Back Paxe and two 14 inch handled Fiskars and a full sized Fiskars.
The short handle on the Back Paxe really limits its usefullness.
By going with the 14inch handled Fiskars you get the exact same axe head (same dimensions and weight) with a more comfortable "just long enough" handle.

My Back Paxe had been relegated to my tool box since the 14 inch Fiskars came along. As a tool box axe the Back Paxe has found it niche.
The Fiskars 14incher is the best compromise between too small and too big.
IMO its the perfect size for a back pack axe.
 
Thanks for the feedback I'm new on this forum and outside of it don't really have anyone to talk to about this kind of stuff. Still can't figure out why my girlfriend doesn't like to hear me talk about survival gear non-stop :)
