SHOW ME YOUR AXES

[Dustin4185]

Picked up a Husqvarna carpenters axe for $30 at the dealer. He said he couldn't move the wood handled axes. I guess I will find a use for it. I need to do some edge work since it is roughly ground on a belt grinder.

What is it with axes why are they so fascinating

Cause you can kill zombies and monsters and *s-word with em. Wilhelm has one just for dragons

It’s funny we do an axe and are happy with it 100% then you see wilhelm’s strong axe with that big metal wedge and I automatically think oh no mine isn’t strong enough it’s gonna be loose as hell within a week

Call me over for a beer, have some rounds ready to be split and I'll quality/durability test Your ax!

Or come by my place with Your ax, have a try at my saws in some oak logs while I test the ax of Yours!

One doesn't kill dragons, one trains and keeps them as watch dogs.
No one will dare even think about robbing the place!
