Homebase axe

Cheers Stuarty, i'll keep that in mind. I reckon i'll end up with a GB anyways, so it might be best to just go for one now. :biggthump

I use a cheap garden centre axe liberated from dad's shed as the PIA of an ex threw out my ceramic one. Ok its a pia to get a good edge on, but it does the job well enough, and will certainly serve until I get a better 1.

How? Did you drop it on your foot?

I bought a cheap small axe in ASDA today. It has some nasty green paint on it, but it does have a shape quite similar to a woodsman style axe.

I have not tested it yet and the edge looks like it could do with some grinding. But, I thought some of you may be interested particularly as it is only just under £7.

Nice one... I'm a huge fan of cheap stuff...

I now have a GB and I'd be quite gutted if I killed it but I can use the homebase one all day long and if it dies... oh well, I'll just get another.

One thing I have noticed over time is that the cheapie one I got los an edge quite easily but that's about it.

Let us know how your cheapie get on

Davros,

Spotted one of those green axes in ASDA today. Do you rate it enough to recommend one, or am I better off saving my pennies?

Cheers,

Michael.
