Probably the ideal size and shape for a trapline or backpacking/bushcraft axe. However, learn how to hang a handle good and tight. Especially if you try to use a Hudson where a feller style is better used. The Hudson style has tendency to loosen if used with alot of prying and pulling due to the smaller surface area at the eye.

I have one of those axes on my wall that was signed by both Bob Noonan and Mike Wilhite.- And it has a revered spot on the antlers of a 6x6 bull I shot years ago.
Mike sent me two (2) of the axes for auction items at Coyote Days this year also!
