When we saw these, we knew we had some exceptional outdoor work tools. Not only is the leverage striking force of these huge, the 6" tough steel Cutting Blade (under very high tension) is only 0.08" (5/64") thick - permitting clean, quick one-blow penetration of any brush or small trees.

The 22" Clearance Tool can be used one-handed as well as two-handed and the cutting head is in line with the handle - allowing equal facility to both right and left handed users. We see it best used on brush from a few feet off the ground to slighty overhead, although you can certainly reach the ground by bending.

The 34" Clearance Tool is a two-handed-only tool. Its cutting head is offset about 10 degrees from the line of the handle. As the edge is offset, when you swing it the blade will cut closely parallel to the ground. It needs to be swung right to left for right-handed users or ambidextrous lefties. The Cutting Blade itself is double sided. These are handsome, rugged lifetime tools.

Overpriced for what you get
Reviewed By:  Trevor (Edinburg, VA) 
The 22" model is a handy tool and for one handed use, is better than a machete. The 34" model is two handed, but is not beefy enough to handle two handed use. I understand that success with these tools is more about finesse than brute, but I have had the blade pop off several times when making larger cuts. And swapping the blade is a pain unless using a table vise.

Response By: Garrett Wade Tech Department
As the video demonstrates, changing the blade requires a vise, so having the blade pop off in the field is not how the Clearing Tool is intended to perform. It could be a defective item, or you could be asking too much of the tool. If the former, please use the Return Label for a full refund or exchange, and if the latter, you might want to consider another Wetterlings Axe for those “larger cuts”.

Slick tool
Reviewed By:  Carll Pallokat (Harwinton, CT) 
I have had a tool like this for 20 years and it is one of my favorites. For delimbing it is fantastic. It slides right through branches, much easier than an axe and can be done with one hand.

Amazing!
Reviewed By:  David (Macclenny, FL) 
I have the 34" version and it's amazing to use. I got mine so sharp I was literally cutting the grass with it (just for fun). Perfect for ground level and waste level weed and brush clearing. It's my favorite tool to use right now.
