Done it again!
on: July 31, 2015, 06:11:15 PM
Ok after the UK Meet I wanted a hatchet

So I got this today



Still a bit big for a hatchet. So I can see a third on its way to me soon.

Ok I just checked and it's a trekking axe 800g 17.5" handle

Really it's a bit unfair to ask an axe to do everything,
if your axe has such a sharp angle to do 'knife' work in theory it will dull quicker when chopping
