There wasn’t a double dog dare, but there was a regular dare for me to try A small hatchet has two uses I’ve never owned a hatchet, so i figured it sounds like fun.
Prime Video: Hatchet II: Rated R Version
Hope this isn't heresy, but i plan on restoring an old plumb half hatchet for use as a camp ax
This one is about 50 years old
Any info on the steel quality and type? Nothing in the woods has changed dramatically. The other was a greatneck hatchet You cannot see it in this pic but the great neck hatchet has the scandi grind but by the time you get to the back of the grind the blade is swelled to 1/4 inch plus thick
Which means the blade does not sink in deep However, if you had bucnh of 2x4 ends to split that thick part of the blade ends in splitting. The two hatchets are estwing's (camp hatchet, and the camp axe which is really a hatchet), and my axe is an old snow and neally hudson bay pattern The estwing's are great hatchets.
To my knowledge, anything classified as a hatchet should fit on the side of a pack
I went back and saw that the word axe was in the title Perhaps your trying to decide between a small axe and hatchet If that is the case, the intended use is. I took my grandsons to jay b starkey park in pasco county yesterday on a mission (another word for adventure, outing, etc)
I carried this beat up hatchet in my backpack I decided to let them swing it a few times, as boys love to do, and stumbled on a safety tip i was not aware. I cut down an axe and hatchet over the weekend to keep in the truck That's cool, looks like you scored an original german harbor freight fireman's hatchet
I would like to rehandle a small norlund hatchet and the handles i have looked at are too large
Where can i find one sized for the bit?
