Query: Split after two months of use

I purchased this product in December of 2010, because my old axe handle was splitting at the neck and was due for replacement - we got it back in the 1980s! Well I had high hopes for this new one, after all it said "Genuine Hickory Made in USA" on it. Sadly, after barely two months of use (splitting pine logs for firewood at home), the new Seymour handle was already splitting, and by February 3 2011, it was totally useless - was split both in the front and back with 8-inch pieces broken off. Unfortunately I discarded (burned actually) the old handle, should have saved it and filed down the neck to re-use it. Now I have to find a replacement, the local Ace Hardware only stocks this brand, and the ones at Home Depot look even worse - very cheap-looking with rough finish, uncomfortable to grip. Perhaps I can find a good used older one on the internet...
