I'm sorry, but if someone pulls out a Spyderco, Toor, Hogue or CRKT hatchet I will automatically assume they have no idea how to use a hatchet

The Toor and CRKT are tactical tools meant for breaching a car or building or splitting a bad guy down the middle. The Spyderco is a bushcraft tool for making a shelter. Not everything is a fireplace tool.

CRKT has some other axes that are more traditional and look like they would be a better option, like the Birler and the Freyr. The Cimbri is more of a tomahawk than anything but wouldn't be a bad choice for space/weight saving on a hike and just make a quick handle when needed

Hahaha! Almost all of those hatchets or tomahawks you listed are pretty much only good for collecting. Maybe hanging it off your belt to impress people who reside in a "knife culture" where decorative blades are expected.

With the exception of the Hulks Bruk and Hoffman, I'm disappointed in most of these axes. Hell I don't even consider most of these as axes/hatches.

Like guitars. everyone wants to buy one and no one wants to learn how to use it.

I love axes as much as knives. I'm glad that there is as many varieties as well.Great video guys and gals.

A little late, but I love how Kurt always has a bandage of some sort on his hand in almost every video

Axe Banter. Love it. That Spyderco was pretty cool looking.

I found myself my dream girl years ago. Taller and broader than me, long red hair, a piercing gaze, and very proud of her Viking heritage. She has the Cold Steel Bad Ax in her birthday wishlist, so I got it for her. She loved it.

I can’t believe you didn’t mention the Council Woodcraft 24”. It’s the best axe I’ve ever used, and it’s 100% USA made from USA components. It uses better steel than many of these (5160), has a hardened pole, and a 90 degree edge on the top. Everyone should own one. The Council Woodcraft 19” and the 16” Camp Carver are amazing, as well.

Good review of some good axes. But could you help a novice out with design, what makes a good throwing axe compared to a work axe? Thanks.

My favorite axe Is a Council Tools, 24" 2# pack axe whose sheath has a shoulder strap attached.

Would’ve liked to have seen the American Tomhawk model 2.

Love it

Very few of these axes are for real work. The hults is great. The rest is novelty.

Can you do a comparison of the top axes and include the winkler knives combat axe.

+1 Thumbs up for mentioning IKEA! ;)

Just watch that Spyderco hammer bit Kurt.! That blue truffle might get bigger.!!

the spyderco is a tactical war axe/hammer!

2 questions One What is that knife on the table that looks like full tang fixed blade? Two was the Carlton Hardware Firewood Splitter Drill Bit ad on purpose or coincidence?

Whittle some retaining channels into that hickory handle , and do a paracord wrap. Maybe even a leather wrap.

what do you guys think of QSP knives?

Genuine question regarding the Jenny Wren. I know it's an RMJ Tactical design, and I've seen some other designs from RMJ moved over to CRKT (Origin fixed). So, did RMJ get bought out, or are they just selling some of their designs to gain a footing in the affordable knife/axe world?

Might be able to chop the carrots and onions up with those lol

Where is the estwing?

Nice

when will the new Gerber line be release? bushcraft hatchet and axe be released?

Had to chime in. That is an Adler, German for eagle, not an alder which is obviously a tree. I know you are showing items you carry for sale, but a mention of Estwing hatchet or camp axe would be nice. Great video, thanks.

If you like Mountain Dew check out Mountain Dew Spark. Just bought a 12 pack last night and tried them, best soda I’ve ever had and I’m trying to make as many people aware of it as possible so they stock the shelves with it

Polymers are sht and wood busts after a few hard overstrikes went to all steel estwings they will not fail you(trail boss was a great chopper untill it broke I have the CS axe with the quick change head its solid only weakness is the wood handle and no overstrike protection) if you like wood handles I recommend adding a overstrike protector

That sucks man

I have a small collection of axes from crkt (all of the woods line) and the more expensive kangee that is a “full tang” and its the same as the most expensive one you showed, it says in the box “not for throwing”, which sucks because that’s exactly why I bought them. I had a sog voodoo hawk years ago that i threw and broke. So when a hawk says “not for throwing” I don’t throw them and it pisses me off. Honestly a little disappointed you didn’t show any of the woods hawks, or any of the other crkt stuff to be honest.

Damn

CHECK OUT THE BROWNING BOYS AXE!! I never see it anywhere and it beats out some expensive axes.

Which hatchet clipped your finger?

The spyderco looks like a sheet rock hammer.

my grandad has a hults bruk axe i believe and its more than 30 years old he has passed it on to me tho

The houge and spyderco are meant for killing two legged threats, not so much bushcraft.

Why can't I find a compact ax or hatchet with a kydex sheath?

Pen banter featuring boker tactical fountain pen and Ethergraf pen?

Open the Utah store front!

Hoffman all dam day

Someday, I will get a Liam Hoffman axe. They are ALWAYS out of stock. Someday.... That Wasatch axe would be the perfect addition to the pile of axes I already have. To be fair, most of those axes are reserved for customer customization, but I have my fair share of hard users & wall hangers. Gotta love dat 🪓

I want a Hoffman but don’t know how to get one. Haha

The problem with these new takes on axes with polymer/g10/crazy profiles is that they don’t help the axe do axe things better. A good piece of steel on a hickory handle is all you need.
