Marble's No. 9?

[Frostyfingers]

I've been looking at a Marble's No. 9 Hunter's axe to complete a "Nessmuk Trio." Does anyone have any experience with this axe? What are your impressions?

I have one that I have not used since they replaced it due to the head flying off. They are cute. It will be more difficult to replace the handle due to the shape of the eye. The angle of the grind is thick. After the head flew off I finished the job with a kukri. The company was great to work with and replaced the axe and sent me a knife. The axe is imported.

I don't like the way they handle although they are VERY head heavy so they hit pretty hard.
