A plain 8 lb maul with a fiberglass handle, a rubber overstrike guard and a striking face.
Truper gives an 8 pound drop forged head, a 36 inch fiberglass handle, a rubber grip and an overstrike guard.
It saves about $13 over the Fiskars Pro.
Split on a chopping block, wear eye protection and boots, keep others well back, and check the head is tight before each session.
