>>895652That + mallet is way heavier than an axe and it can't fell trees, can't split logs, can't debranch, can't hew, can't drive wedges, can't decapitate niggers. I think I'll pass.
Overall, whenever some new gimmick is thought up and marketed as revolutionizing something, be suspicious and think things through. Unless you're dealing with an all-new material allowing for a different way to do things, history tends to be the best guide. And the axe has a solid history.
Another piece of insight is that Kickstarter and the Home shopping network is 99% garbage with saccharine, ukulele-driven marketing aimed at the naive lowest third on the intelligence spectrum and those without practical experience. Women and hipsters if you will.
