http://www.cheappetproducts.net/shopdisplayproducts.asp?Search=Yes&sppp=15 i know its an obscure link but have a look?! i may get one and do a review if people sound interested?
damn! gonna have to wait for payday then shipping - its american by the looks of things, maybe our friends across the pond have heard of them?!
I was going to say - I'll be intrigued what the shipping is from the US on such a large item. Don't forget that you will laso be liable for VAT and customs charges plus a £10 parcel force handling charge when it gets here as well!

Oh and by the way i am aware that i am a newbie here although a longtime bushcrafter, i have not formally intro'd myself as some places prefer you to but here's my introduction just in case! its a great forum and i am proud to be a member!
Nope - just painful experience
Had one large parcel charged over $100 shipping , then got hit for about £40 import duty, VAT and handling. Worked out about treble the purchase price in the finish.
Flipsider is some small and cheap stuff cost me about $5 shipped in a standard weight pre-paid envelope.
Sometimes you are lucky, sometimes not. My fear on this puppy is might end up costing almost as much as a GB working axe - which would be a pity not to own if the price was similar
I do have a couple of "Valley Forge" double bits which I must get round to re-hanging eventually and then passing on

i agree mate seems the packaging is going to sting on first look but am going for it on the emails hoping something will come up! i would like to try a gb working axe i use a single bit near enough every day and fancy a double shake things up a bit!
Not yet! bought my land rover instead and am pottering about with that at the moment!
do want to give it a try though, the shipping does still seem ugly though even if the axe looks alright! will keep you posted!
