I wanted a hatchet from people who know how to make axes. The best in classic or even retro style. And, of course, forged from carbon steel. My first impression was very good, despite a few cosmetic flaws, the finishing of which would require raising the price. The cover is great, if only with an additional extra strip of leather, between the rivets, which guarantees almost 100% that the blade will never be damaged by them. Two days ago I made my first serious test during a twenty-kilometer walk through the woods. (in the Netherlands it is so difficult - to find a piece of the forest for this). Surprisingly, he fit into a small backpack (Wizzard 24+4) I found a pine heaps, lying a few months, but quite fresh.The hatchet worked better than I expected.The ten-centimeter branch fell after a dozen of hits blows (one even after seven or eight). Narrow, curves blade can penetrate the tree very well, so despite the fact that axes are expected to be effective in lightweight and medium-sized tasks from this class, I am convinced he can do a lot more, this is my new friend, However, a very comfortable handle, with heavy work it becomes too thin, and quite firmly pressed into your hands. Needed gloves. Perfect medium universal hatchet.
