    Hatchet, machete or parang?

    Well, one is a Tramotina and one is an Imcasa and if they are not machetes, then I have no idea what they are because I've been calling knives like this machetes for as long as I can remember. In my experience, a "brush cutter" is a sickle or scythe. I got a pretty good little pile of them...

    Can an axe replace a saw and a knife?

    According to my dictionary, a hatchet is a small axe with a short handle for use with one hand.

    Red, you've got a heckuva green thumb. I'm pretty sure I've never had really fresh parsnips. :(

    Hatchet, machete or parang?

    All I can say is I know which ones I use for chopping down tall grasses, brambles, and light brush and which I use to cut large saplings and chop up heavy limbs of hardwoods. There is a LOT of variation among these tools, imo, to call them the "same tool." The machetes are 0.09" thick along...

    "International Transaction" - What the heck?

    You continue to put energy into the system in the form of fuel so no laws are violated. :) Although...I have actually not looked at this contraption... ;) Also, I doubt the fan heats the fire eh? It just increases the flow of oxygen to the fire.

    A phrase I hear in the stores around here at the checkout is "Did you find everything OK?" Everything is NOT OK. :soapbox:

    Mora life span

    Normal wear and tear, maybe 20 years or more. What wears a knife out is sharpening. Don't over-sharpen your knife and it will last a LONG time. If you carve a lot and therefore sharpen a lot, life expectancy will be shorter. Of course, beating on your knife with a baton or axe could have a...
