Oops, PS: On the far right next to the talking sticks is a roughed out cutleaf maple spoon blank. That's all axe work prior to knife work. Whew! Developing axe skills is really a lot of effort/practice, especially controlling that 2.2 pound Carving axe. I know that the Wildlife Hatchet that Riv currently carries is one that people like, along with the Wetterlings Compact Hatchet and the GB Hand Hatchet (both of which I thought Riv carried but don't see them on the website anymore?) So many hatchets, so little time. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Here's my first three.

I tried carving bowls and spoons and both are smarter than my brain. Or my brain uses too much of my uber limited brain energy to do it. So my hatcheting is limited to firewood and burning my labor now. Grin. With abandon, Patrick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Re: Bike, Book, and Hatcheting
What do y'all find to chop with them lil' hatchets (axlings)? I used to love to chop wood, but always used a full-size axe -- one was a Sears that my father bought circa 1963 (my brother still has it), and t'other was a backyard forged head on a hand-carved handle, Kenya, circa 1966. The tree trimmers came and chopped 2' thick limbs from the trees near the house (very pretty watermelon-colored-with-white-veins wood; the pink the color of our Sandia Mountains at dusk. The trimmers used *pangas.*). I'd go out on a weekend afternoon and chop those logs into smaller ones -- wish I had the option to do that now. As good exercise as digging ditches, but far more fun.
