I was just wondering if anyone has ever modified a Gransfors Bruks axe head so you can strike a ferro rod on it.
My reasoning is that I can cut, split and feather stick firewood with my SFA, but then strike the ferro rod on the spine of my knife in order to light the feather stick.
If its possible to file the top of the axe head to a good angle to enable a good shower of sparks to be thrown when using the ferro rod it would make the axe the complete tool in fire lighting.
Whats your thoughs?
