Fantastic to see the axe being used in the way it was intended!

How did it perform?

Red

Beautifully. I lifted the ribs out with about 6 swipes. It cut through the belly as clean as you like.

And as TMKTK said it had prepared the firewood and maya sticks just before I butchered the pig.

I didn't want to part any bones - we were keeping the shoulder whole because it had a flint arrow head embedded in it (and I mean embedded) but it jointed and filleted the shoulder as well as my Pacific Professional Kitchen knives.

I need to put my name down for one...

(btw if you can butcher this is the cheapest way to buy pork. 20GBP and I have a freeser full of red-cooked belly. I'm thinking of getting a half a lamb when I've made some room in the freezer. Anyone interested in a jointing tutorial? Or even fowl jointing?)
