2lb steel axe head vs 2lb titanium axe head. The titanium axe head will need to be significantly bigger to achieve the same weight. I don't like...
I agree. My american axes generally balance about inline with the front of the eye
My thoughts on this are; remove the hole in the head. Removing weight from the head is counter productive. If you need to reduce weight, IMO...
Interesting find. Sorry I cant offer any info on the maker. :D Would like to see this pop up in the "what did you rehang today thread" :D
Link handles are about all I can find in local hardware stores down here in NZ. I would not order one online due to them being very hit and miss....
yep that's a nice rafting axe you got there. hold onto that one :) I have a 5lb one of those. I think it was just your image making the...
Nice work there Junkenstien. Nice transition from handle to eye, and the straight haft should help you make good use of the hammer poll. Good...
Thanks for the review. Would be interested to see SFA vs tomahawk of similar weight with a proper edge on it. The bit on the SFA looks thin and...

hah you will open a can of worms with that one see thread below which is 5 pages long. I personally think it may be a mann edge tool. But the...
aha good find! :) exactly what I was thinking of. OP - don't let that put you off anything. Im sure its a very nice ax head and worth some time...
I think I have seen that before. I believe its Chinese. Its a mark of a deer and a Chinese character. There was a thread on it recently ( i think)
I agree. Titanium is stupid idea for an impact tool. It needs to be physically very large in order to achieve the same weight of its steel...
^any sharpened bit of steel can put in "work" I have no doubt one could get done whatever they needed to get done using the klax, or pretty much...
Alright this is my latest hytest axe. I must say the handle feels really good and is very thin. I wanted to compare the handle to something off...
