I keep one around the garage, and have one in my off-road vehicles, but as far as carrying it around during my daily bidness? Nah...that's a little to much of an attention-getter for me.

Nice! What's the weight on that thing These are 1.75 lb straight. I've got a couple of 2.25 with the longer handle that I prefer, but these will be fine for their use. They also make a 1.3 head. Some find the handles a bit thin, esp in the throat. I've got a few Basque axes, most Jauregi, been very happy with them. |

 Some are hand fitted by me, others are custom by axe men and some are factory. Same for the masks. Some are older than me. Lots of wood time. I need to get a real tomahawk. I have a SOG from a survival store near me. It's basically worthless for most tasks. I like my GB mini or my carvers for close in work. I'm just suburban tree hacker with a minor in wood butchering. |

I bought this Husqvarna some years ago and it lives tucked between the passenger seat and center console of my truck....The Husqvarna stuff is made by Hultafors now....comes in handy quite a lot more than I even thought it would...I keep a Silky Gomboy there too and there ain't much I can't do with that pair.

I'm on the hunt for something a little bigger than a CCW. I don't know if it because I'm back to reping 500 for deadlifts or that I'm just now feeling the urge to live up to my great great great great great great great great great blah blah blah Grandfather King Cnut.
I want an axe. I have a cold steel bearded axe but it's just ok. Maybe the CRKT Cimbri? |

Obviously, axes and hawks are like anything else in that you can really spend just about anything you want on them. As far as a production piece goes, I'd put CRKT up towards the top of the list. Condor makes a similar style, and I've always been happy with their products. |

 Finally joined the club. A Cold Steel pipe hawk and some time to do a little customization. I did take the 22" handle down to 18" fit in my pack and overall fits better. had to sharpen it also, was dull as Shit when I got it. It will be fun out in the woods. |

  For the older Marine who who introduced us.   For my boss.   All were cut to a beveled 14-16 inches, sanded, the heads properly fit to the shaft, stained and polyurethanes, and the heads stripped, patina’d, and resharpened. |

Loving this thread.
I came to appreciate small axes over machetes and large knives in the woods here. Been on a lot of trips where my axe was doing twice the work in the same times as guys using large knives. I'll drag in a pack from a vehicle tomorrow to snap a picture of either my Scandi or Small Forest axe. Nothing really fancy, just clipped to the outside of a three day pack. One life hack for axes is I use mine with its mask on to move branches out of my path limiting my exposure to ticks above my waist. |
