Axes!

I have three axes in the house now; the ‘utility’ axe I borrowed from [livejournal.com profile] dr_mrow and refurbished, and now two hatchets. I just tested the new pair on some fir cutoffs, and they cut fine after I reground the damned edge.

I hear the cry already: why in the name of ghod do you have more than one axe, let alone even one? There’s a long reason for this that I will gleefully tell you all about if you are fool enough to ask, but basically “they’re good for different things”.

Why I have any axes at all I haven’t totally sorted out yet…
