It appears the hatchet may have never been used. It is pretty cute. Any ifo would be appreciated. I have nothing clever to put here.

America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Works good on deer but a big bull elk not so much never done an elk , works on small beef cows 6-800 pounds before I started just cutting around the anus I used a folding saw which was also handy for taking down branches as needed when setting up tree stands , then one day I didn't have my saw with and tried cutting around the anus it is harder on mature whitetail bucks have to cut some additional connecting tissue and not just pull through Last edited by GREENCOUNTYPETE; 07/12/22 09:33 AM.
