Using The Axe By Keith H Burgess




17th century lathing hatchet.


Tomahawk or trade axe.

I have seen many explain how to hold and swing the axe but never have explained so precisely where to hit the wood for the best results. Your tutorial is greatly appreciated and the information used. Thank you!

Many countries which have considerable rules about the right to carry weapons do not include tomahawks/axes. Therefore, they are also useful to keep in your car as tools for any occasion.
