Thank man :)

Yep there's a few at the top of the page they disappeared temporarily for some reason. I took the axe out yesterday for a tester it goes through 1.5" sticks easily with one chop I also set upon a large dead silver birch stump about a foot wide the wood was really hard to but I soon had it down...

Cheers guys :)

Well I found a manky axe in the local woods a week or so ago and I thought id clean it up and re-handle it, I'm not that familiar with axes I've been using my Martindale golok for any chopping so this is the first time I've re-handled one and I'm quite pleased with the result it feels great...

Daym hees gone have a big fare t'night

Yep seems Elwell's are good axes What handle length do you think will match the head weight? im after a backpacking axe so if it would not be too heavy on say a 16"-20" handle then perfect no need to buy another axe, what do you guys think?

Nice job that wood looks really nice Whats the length of it? Ive just come across a Elwell 2 1/4lb axe myself which I'm going to refurb but I'm not sure what handle length to use.

Ive just found this while out in the local woods, it had clearly been sitting there for a while, its a bit beat up but the actual head seems ok, the only markings on the head are "Elwell 2 1/4" and it also has stamped "2 1/4" on the top as well, I had to clean it up with a wire brush to be able...

Wow love the simplicity of it, what was the price if you don't mind me asking?

Interesting thought, do you think it would be strong enough

I dint know of any body shops nearby Id feel a bit of a idiot going in with a big knife anyway, sounds like mig or tig would be the way to go though so as not to mess up the heat treat

Ok thanks, can anyone do brazing then?

Come to think of it I'm pretty sure its not welded, I'm not sure how its been done though I'm not really clued up on attaching metals to one another, Ill get a picture up in a min.

I need someone to do a bit of unusual welding for me, I have a British army survival knife or MOD survival knife whatever you want to call it anyway the guard is welded on and somehow one of the welds has broke so I just need someone to re weld it, anyone fancy doing it for me obviously ill pay...

I like that as soon as I saw it the Ontario SK-5 came into my head, very useful knife

Id say an Enzo Trapper and funnily enough ive just been on Heinnies to see what's new today and they have just got three versions of it in stock ;) , I might even pick up an O1 one myself.

Hi all Ive got a pair of 5.11 Taclite Pro pants and I like them but their a bit of a strange fit on me, the waist is perfect but id need an bottom like ja lo to fill them out their just a bit too big aroung that region but the crotch is a bit tight, they just feel a bit wierd, anyway I'd like...

Id go for the RTAK 2 or the BK9, the A2 will defenately have and hold a better edge but is that realy essential for the tasks a camp knife will be used for i think not and have you seen the price :yikes: Edit: check out this vid and some of his others...

I've had the BK2 for around 3 years which I've been using in conjunction with a Martindle golok and a small 4" fixed blade and its a great knife and I haven't felt the need to replace it but I recently got my hands on a MOD survival knife and I prefer it to the BK2, I tested them both out in the...

Hello I have a MOD survival Knife which has a very steep edge and it is not quite central, I need someone with the right equiptment to reprofile it for me for a small fee Anyone?
