Hatchet!

Last week i received a wonderful little hatchet in the post. I had initially ordered the Gransfors Bruks carving axe, and was very happy when it arrived. Unfortunately it had a nasty split runnin up the handle. I neihter have the materials nor the skill to succesfully rehang one of those, and frankly didnt want a new axe with a broken handle. The webshop i got it from was very helpful. They contacted GB, and within a week i had sent it back and received a full refund. Unfortunately a new carving axe would not be available till the end of juli, and i wanted a carving axe for on my holiday. It is therefore that i ordered the hatchet and i am glad i did. It is a very nice tool. Chops like a beast, and carves very accurately. The carving-axe is still on the wishlist, however. One never has too many axes, right?

  3. That must be comparable to the fiskars x5 that I played with this week then? Convenient size, I bet you`re pleased with it. :-)
