Hi fellas,
i am a complete novice when it comes to axes, my experience is limited to cheap rusty hatchets in the garage rather than "wilderness axes".
i am basicly looking for a lightweight chopping companion to my wolverine or woodsman B&T. ive been using goloks up to now and although they are extreamly versitle i think a small axe may be lighter and more appropriate for just a short stay in the woods ect.
the exe will be used for:
1. splitting firewood for a fire or carving projects
2. cutting and limbing trees where needed
3. rough carving
it should be:
1. lightweight
2. well made
3. under £50 (student budget lol)
4. easy to control when doing fne tasks
5. nice n sharp (the one in my shed is duller than a lump of foam)
ive heard good things about Gransfors Bruks, wetterlings and Cegga.
The question is, Which one?
ATB
