axe

[Cedarkerf]

The Council axe I bought yesterday has a real nice flare at the handle end to reduce slippage much stouter handle then my old axe.

With all this re-hanging going on, I re-hung my stove side hatchet. I didn't have the proper poplar wedge so I reshaped a pine shim. Less than five minutes work - should just kick myself as the loose head has been aggravating me for a good ten years. Ron

i was wonderin bitz, glad to hear from ya. i used that axe today to chop out a couple deer stand nails.........that is the nicest choping ax i ever swung.......two swings per nail, 2" deep in cherry. i love it. oh its 5lbs, no need for lighter lol.

i only cut two twins [school marms] today. a white oak and a cherry i would have left 5 years ago. one side 36 the other 32, 8' off the ground. i split it closer to ground [5'] lol. blocked face as they both heavy leaners. put both in the woods, no mess in the field.
no way to jump with a 20" less ya 12' tall lol. i love mah long bars and knowledge i learned here.
oh they both saved out wonderfully.

Thanks for the referral. I just placed an order for four handles (for fire rakes). They are 1/2 the price of Ben Meadows or other fire tool suppliers. And shipping is cheap too!

They are sort of a trapping axe.
