That got my attention too Boco, Im betting it will be way out of my price range, but it sure looks well made.

Incredible craftsmanship! Some very nice pieces. I am guessing the prices are reasonable with the amount of work into them, but outside of my price range. I would be afraid to use it!

I have a stalwort axe from John neeman tools. John neeman tools sort of started/ became the northmen guild. Same axe as pictured but the handle has a leather overstrike wrap instead of the grip wrap. They are indeed nice. I have never actuly used mine, just hang it on the wall. Too pretty and I have a granfors as a working axe.

They do a great job marketing their stuff and their products are indeed excellent.

For even more fun watch their log cabin building videos. I think this is only part one. I found and watched the whole thing and it was astonishing what they do with a few hand tools. I believe this is only part one but it's worth searching for and watching the whole thing

Ya, as far as I know, the Jacob guy in the video teaches the Northmen timber framing courses. Norway or somewhere over there.

I have to say that their "Northmen" brand of marketing is incredible. I get the feeling that they do it for more than just the money. If you watch the video, the craftsmanship is extraordinary. You get the feeling that all people involved get a great sense of accomplishment from all they do. Nice to see that they make everything. Craftmanship seldom seen toda
