gerber/fiskars axes

[rugerhead]

howdy, friends and neighbors!
can anybody say if there's a difference between the fiskars pro chopping ax and the largest gerber camp ax other than the orange grip area on the fiskars?
note: the fiskars was $29.00 @ lowe's
the gerber was $45.00 @ gander mountain

They appear to be identical except for the handle coloring. I have a couple of the hatchets with orange on the handle bottoms and got them at Menards for $20 each, I think they are about $35 for the all black version. I just got one of the chopping axes at Lowes myself a few weeks ago. It works great. I think that the different colors are just "geared" to different consumers. The hatchets were in the lawn and garden section. These are good tools at very good prices in my experience...
