BeaverCraft Wood Carving Axe Hatchet with Sheath AX1 - Forged Axes Bushcraft Hatchet for Camping - Small Forest Axe for Chopping, Splitting - Gardening Axes with Wooden Handle, Wood Carving Tools

This hatchet is an essential piece of outdoor equipment. It's solid enough to do serious cutting, but compact enough to be really easy to control. It arrived very sharp and holds an edge beautifully. If I could only take one cutting tool into the woods, this would be the one.

This is a great little hatchet once I sharpened it up at "25°" on the Worksharp belt sharpener, it shaves arm hair and push cuts paper now! I feel the edge needed a little thinning since being small you aren't putting the force behind a bigger tool. The steel holds It's edge well and touches up easily. It's a small hatchet, so don't expect it to do large hatchet/axe things very well.

Nice hatchet and I have used a few times now. Wish it had come a little sharper as I had to spend time sharpening. Cutting with it when it 1st came was like trying to cut with a butter knife: mine was just dull but I corrected that and do like the hatchet much better now.

I’m not an “axe snob” but appreciate the balance, finish and weight of this one. Goes in the fourwheeler or snowmobile bag well and does the truck!

Excelente. Es lo que esperaba

This hatchet is a work of art and no slouch when it comes to putting in work in the woods. I'm impressed that Beavercraft can make such a splendid tool at this price point. The head is hand forged and takes a killer edge and holds that edge quite well. I was on the fence about the handle shape, once I got it in hand and started using it for various bushcraft activities it felt natural. I didn't notice any hot spots either. The leather mask and holster are a very nice addition as well. Good craftsmanship on all of the items. My only critique so far would be that the holster is made out of relatively thin leather and isn't the sturdiest but it does get the job done. I would absolutely recommend giving this hatchet a swing!

Purchased this axe in February. Nicely shaped and weighted axe but was disappointed with the sharpness. I had to put a lot of work into getting it sharp enough to safely use as a wood carving axe. Once sharpened, it is a quality tool.

Great ax for carving.
