Thor's hammer!
Updating my review, as I've had this for over a year. See my picture of the head & handle, holding up well even with some overstrikes.This is really the ticket for splitting wood, I've tried a number of splitting mauls, and this is THOR's hammer. I split a whole lot of wood, as I heat my house with wood. So far, I've split approximately 20 cords of wood with this, and even with a number of overstrikes, the damage is hardly noticeable. Head is secure, this seems like a tool I'll split tons and tons more wood with, and it'll continue to take and give punishment.Note that I really put this to the test, I split very large wood, so much of the time I'm delivering punishing blows to 20-30" rounds of oak, maple, etc. I'm about 210 lb, 5'10 . I'm not just splitting the small stuff like many people may be doing.Pros:- Handle (so far) is indestructible, I would have broken a hickory handle by now, and fiberglass probably woudn't be in great shape- Contrary to other reviews, mine came out of the box nice and sharp, maybe I got lucky, but no sharpening needed- Very well built, this will last me lots more yearsCons:Not a con for me, but be careful, if you are used to a 8lb head on a fiberglass handle this is a LOT heavier. The handle has steel rods in it that adds a lot of weight. This weighs 12lb easy. So, if you aren't a strong man (or woman) you may want to look for the 6 lb model.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most heavy duty maul on the market.
Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2017
Probably the most extreme maul short of the 12lb varieties that are unbalanced and vibrate like crazy. Overall it is 10lbs. You can definitely notice the difference when you pick up an 8lb. maul. With a traditional 8lb. maul, most of the weight is in the head. This one feels heavy all over. However, physics is in your favor when using it. Make sure to wear steel toe boots and glasses, as it blows apart difficult pieces. I bought mine used, and it was sharp. I can see where people many think it is not sharp, as the cheeks are very thick that abruptly come to a point. The taper is not as thin as a Fiskars ISO core or a more traditional axe. You will not mess up the overstrike area for a very long time. The green paint my chip off, but the maul looks great after splitting many rounds. Other mauls I've used are not so lucky, especially the ones with a rubber overstrike guard. I'd recommend building yourself up to this, as you will tire quickly if it is your primary splitting device. I'd personally get a 6lb. maul than work your way up this 10lb. monster.
If you have any issues with the head separating from the shaft, make sure you contact Wilton. They will take care of you, and replace the unit after some paperwork and photos describing the issue. It was a pleasant experience using the warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars One Beefy Maul
Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2019
I’ve owned this maul and the Wilton 20 lb “Unbreakable” Sledgehammer for about two months now and damn, these tools are tough! I split wood by hand weekly and have probably done 4-5 cord with this set so far. They are very rugged built. Love the grip, I’ve never slipped on the handle once. Overstruck on a couple swings and they just laughed it off. On really big pieces I’ve used this maul as a wedge and bashed it with the 20lb sledge and the maul has held up incredibly well to the abuse, very little impact on the top from all the beating. The rubber is starting to crack some near the top but this seems to be purely cosmetic damage. The circular black plastic thing on top popped off very quickly but I could care less, again, just cosmetic. My only gripe is that the handle flexes. With my old maul that had a hickory handle when it got wedged in a stubborn piece of wood I could use it as a lever to pry the two apart. Not with this maul. It well bend. Must be something to do with the “unbreakable” technology of the design. Other than that a phenomenal maul. Hope to be using it for a long time.
