Title: Rough and ready pack axes
Post by: srtben on June 14, 2013, 10:58:00 AM
Hey guys its been a while since I have posted or made any axes, but finished these 2 up this week. The horse mat one was an order, the other one I just kinda did on a whim. I am pretty happy with it, let me know what you guys think.
The basic dimensions are 12.25" long, and the head is 5.25" long with a 3.5" cutting edge. The steel is .170" L6 saw steel.

I like the look of them Ben . The second appears to have a tacticalesque look to it . I am a little biased however as I have always admired your craftsmanship.
