Have you actually ever used one?

Oh, and Tim ........ please do not post a link to this great new all in one tool from your site. Thank you.

Hey there TimRalston. How about checking out our Introduction section.

I've got the Fiskars mid sized axe. I don't store anything in the handle. It is stored in my truck, which holds everything else I need to store.

It cleans up real nice.

Slap shot and he scores!

Good idea.

You might check gun stores or wood hobby stores. Tru Oil is often used to finish gun stocks. If you're inclined, there are probably a ton of places to get it on line.

Yes to both of your questions.

Edit: I should have said yes to all three of your questions.

I think you just did. I never had the pleasure of meeting him, but enjoyed going back and reading some of his posts.

So - what you're saying is that even a reeeeeeeally good defense attorney has trouble overcoming stupid?

How did he fare?

A concealed ax for self defense? Yeah, OK - good luck with that.

Looks interesting. I wonder how the hinge pin will hold up under repeated use?

Acestor - while we're figuring that out, how about heading over to the Introduction section and tell us a bit about...

Hey Alergyfree - how about cutting your way over to the Introduction section and tell us a bit about yourself. Thanks.

I imagine you could make one of those using an old chainsaw blade. Hmmmm - another project for the list.

Nice collection of tools and art.

Nice collection. If it works for you, it works for me.

Glad to help. I'm sure others will weigh in, some may agree, some may disagree - it can all be helpful information when you're making a decision.

There are probably some other members with more knowledge of hardness and how brittle edges are. I don't have the technical knowledge to help you with that one.

Some people may prefer stainless if they are using them in very wet environments.

While stainless holds an edge better than carbon steel, it will need sharpening. It is easier (for me at least) to put an edge on a carbon steel axe or blade than a stainless one. The carbon steel...

I'm not familiar with them. I noticed when looking them up, at least the ones I was looking at, that the head was made of 440 stainless. I don't care for stainless in my axes. That's just me.

This is the one that I carry. Didn't buy it here though. It's a bit heavier than some of the others (9 ounces). ...

I've never used one with the "smooth tooth technology" that it describes so I can't say how it performs. My folding saws work well - picked em up at Home Depot for about $10 each.

Sounds like a good selection there CC.
