Does the head get rusty easily?

it is not stainless steel so it will rust. I haven't noticed much rust, but I don't leave it wet or outside so that it would rust. With normal common sense care, rust is not a problem. If you are asking about rust to determine if it is made of soft iron, it is not. It is definitely steel, but not high nickel or chrome steel Thus, it takes an edge nicely

I used mine all last winter and have not noticed much rust developing. I do not let dirt stay on it however. Great medium size axe!

All high carbon steel blades can and will rust. When you are finished using your axe clean it well. I use a little kerosene and a wire brush. Clean all of the dirt and pitch from the blade. Towel dry and apply a light coat of Rem Oil. If you do this it will last a lifetime. Great tool for the money

I have had no problem with rusting, just be sure to care for it properly after each use.

Not to my knowledge. The one I bought has been used and washed numerous times and air-dried; Seen no signs of rust.

I do and not have had a problem. It is all aluminum so it doesn't rust. I do dry it off though.

It hasn't yet. I wash it and let it dry and keep in the original box when not using. So far no rust!

no, no problems of any kind, am very happy with it. have only had it for six or eight months though, which may not be long enough for rust to show up.

Not advisable...if you look carefully at the area where the rod slide out of the outer rod, it can get rusty. All 3 of the 1 that I own have some rust there which means it can go rusty.

Nope! We have had ours for nearly three years now. It sits outside year round. We live in Ohio. No rust. The only thing that is less than perfect is the fit of the inner lid. It's not quite "true". Not a big issue. Good luck!

I have not had any trouble with rust at all. I have been so happy with this product - I tried a few others but this one is the easiest to clean and manage

Perhaps it will start to rust at the hinges if its left out and gets wet regularly, over time. But the entire frame appears to be weather-coated to prevent rusting. My chair has gotten wet only a handful of times in the past year and no rust has started. But I also try to fold it up and keep it out of weather as much as possible. I'm very happy with this product.

Yes if you leave it out all of the time. If you put it away when not in use for camping or what not then it works fine and no rusting.

I have not had any problems with rust and I own 2 sets purchased at separate times.

I have no problem with the product rusting. Holds up well if cleaned and cared for after each use. I have had one for more then 5 years and bought a 2nd one as a gift about a year ago.

I've left it outside a couple of nights, and it's not showing any sign of rusting, but I haven't owned it long enough for it to rust. It's a great chair, and it's difficult for me to find a chair that's comfortable because I'm 355 pounds. So I take good care of it.

I've not had any issues of rust so far. We use it in salt water area and it's held up fine. A quick rinse after each use seems to do the trick.

I always use it for shaving before I take a shower, so fogging isn't a problem. WHen it is, a three second blast from my hair dryer clears it up. As for Rust, I don't see how that will ever be a problem and certainly hasn't so far. It doesn't look to constructed of materials that would ever rust.

Yes it rusts just like all cast iron products... A little steel wool and it actually gives it a nice patina.
