I really enjoy it! I'll try to get some more axe content out here soon!

You know how to swing an axe! It would be good idea, to bring your favorite axes on the next one. Even though I don't own either this or the Lamaca, from wht I've seen , the "Farmer" is probably a bit better performer than that one. Keep 'm sharp and see you on the next one!

Thanks I appreciate that! I'm working on getting my Hoffman and Lamaca review uploaded as we speak

Not this guy's first rodeo 🤠

How’s the challenge going for you? I’d like to try that head on a different handle. I’ve never seen one of his in person.

I actually finished it with about a half hour to spare at the end of the month. It was definitely a challenge lol. If you want a closer look I did a review on a few of his axes and I go more indepth with everything

That’s a pretty nice axe! Looks like it has a good profile. Cuts deep, but doesn’t stick.

It takes a little extra power to get going but once you get it down it's hard to beat thats for sure

That was my biggest issue with hoffman axes. A friend of mine has a few hoffman axes and a small belt hatchet from him aswell, which i got to borrow or use from time to time. I absolutely love his style of axes. My favorite is the 3lb camp axe on a 28" or 30" handle. But the one thing that stuck out to me was how sticky they were. I was chopping alot of wood for the cordwood challenge and got to try out some Hoffman axes. They all felt pretty sticky in the wood. I was chopping a mixture of Fir, Pine, Cedar, and Madrone/Arbutus. And the one type that didn't stick as much, was the madrone. Everything else was pretty sticky and the chips just didn't want to pop as easily. I gotta give him credit though. They look and feel so awesome and the handles were pretty much perfect and an absolute joy to look at. This was also 3 years ago, give or take. I brought up the geometry issue i was having on facebook, and suggested trying something with a little more cheek in them, and a higher center line perhaps? Liam was very cool about it and just seemed pretty open. So i have been really curious to see what his newer axes are like. Ive been watching some of his newer videos and he's absolutely killing it!
