They are very cheap, indestructible and remain sharp for a long time, pretty much like the simplest Tramontina kitchen knives Moreover they are lighttweight and this makes a difference when you use them for longer periods. I'm small and weak compared to any man but I easily clear trails through willows, with springy branches that are often as thick as my arm. I also use a smaller machete to combat hogweed flowerheads and stalks. Very Nice NRA and NTA Life Member www.BackroadsRevised@etsy.com

I was surprised after how much I like their ax and splitting maul. Since the boys have been intresrlted in black smiting maybe I will try to make something at one of the Hammer ins where one of the experienced blacksmiths can help me and keep me from messing it up to bad.

The devil's greatest trick isn't making us think he doesn't exist. It's flattering us. So we don't see..... the devil is us.
