I've decided I can't really talk smack about the Fiskars until I try one, but I've noticed that nobody carries a "line" of the splitters. This lead me to check out the different splitters carried by Fiskars (on their website). It might be helpful to those searching as well.
the Splitting axes are listed in order of length in the following picture, and the Fiskars website has the following prices for each: $53, $45, $40, and $40 respectively (top to bottom). The website didn't have head weights for the 23.5 and 17" splitters. The pictures have been pulled off of their website and I had to shrink them to provide some perspective, so the two smaller splitters may be slightly out of whack, but you get the basic idea. Hope this is helpful.....
