Fiskars fiber reinforced plastic handles are renowned for being excellent axe handles. I certainly understand and respect if someone prefers hickory, but the plastic is an even better shock absorber. Fiber reinforcing plastic tears up molds, so perhaps Fiskars cheaped out on this one. More likely is that the thin blade can crack the plastic if it encounters large chopping resistance like a conventional axe would see. I believe these are never meant to hit a non-flexible object. It would seemingly excel at things like vines, saplings, palm fronds, and sugarcane. I think Fiskars calling it a chopping axe is misleading and that's on them.
Almost all axes ship dull. I'm not sure if this is due to lowering cost of manufacturing or because they don't trust that people won't slice themselves open immediately, but I suspect the latter. Go look at the serrated Mercer bread knife on Amazon. The review pictures are bloody fingers and stitches. Anybody that owns any axes should have a large bastard file and a stone for sharpening.
I like this Johnson Made-in-USA big bastard :

I like this stone (but I'm curious about the ones that come with a leather pouch):
