I've carried an Axe in my truck since I can remember. It's used all the time to do all sorts of things. Endlessly useful, but mine is growing old, it's had a few too many hits to the shoulder, she's looking rough and it's time to retire her before she hurts me.
So, I'm thinking about replacing her with a tomahawk. Most of the time, it's used to cut small branches, make tent poles, move logs (that were cut with a chainsaw). I'm not sure a tomahawk would fit this position so well, but I'm ready for something that is all metal and the Downrange Tomahawk from Gerber is very enticing.
what say everyone? Buy another 'old faithful' single bit, replace the handle on the one I have, buy a nice Wetterlings or just go with a Tactical Tomahawk and be done with it?
I prefer the forestry axes to a smaller camping hatchet, but think the tomahawk might be a good compromise.
