Any cheap/good methods of doing so? Wouldn't mind just using cordage to do so, as long as I can get it out of it's bindings with relative ease and speed.

Not sure what your purpose is for bringing a hatchet so I won't hate too much but that's pretty much deadweight if you're doing any kind of backpacking bro. If you really want to bring it I would combine caribiners with cordage to make it easy to access.

looks like a really fucking nice setup OP im jealous

Hiking to campsite? I don't like taking many trips and I like keeping as hands free as possible? Splitting my wood for said campsite?
Not trying to sound like a dick, but I don't know why you WOULDN'T bring one?

Why is a hatchet deadweight?
Never done it before, but could work.
Get two carabiners, and two pieces of cord. Tie a loop on both ends of each piece of cord. Use one cord to put thru end of hatchet and carabiner thru both cord loops and attach the carabiner to molle.
Do same thing with head of axe, but make sure to keep the one on the head of the axe short so it'll stay near the handle area.

OOOHHHH I LIKE IT
Thanks anon
So are molle bags good? I did consider one before, because pockets galore, but I just wasn't sure if it would actually be a decent bag, or if it was tacticool shit bought by the same people who take fantasy knives and such /out/

You need to get one with a frame that is substantially better than military standards

>you get Austin White for fast response
Example...?

Most of the time there is enough deadwood to just snap with your hands, far less effort and saves you the weight of carrying a hatchet. Also a saw will split logs much more quickly and with less effort, however if you are only camping and bringing logs from home there's no reason not to bring it. I was just under the assumption you'd be hiking in since you want to carry it on your pack.

Not everywhere is dry fun hand breaking fantasy land. We've got moist, damp, humid places out east and many a time you are resorted to tying a log to a rope and fishing down dry kindling from the dead branches that have managed to avoid the ground

>Tying a log to a rope
...what are you... what? You use rope to tie a log to what? How does that come in to play with getting dry kindling from up high?
canadian jam knot. one below head, one at the and of handle.

I think he's talking about using cordage to pull down on branches that are out of reach, in order to harvest dry dead wood. Personally I just tie a monkey fist around a rock for counterweight -- but before I knew how to tie a monkey fist, I used to tie a small piece of wet wood from the ground to the end of my cord with any old knot. I just hoped it wouldn't come loose from the cord and come flying back down at me.

I've got a Fast Pack EDC that I love to death. It was pretty pricey though
>>713545
I've used mine for day hikes and have preferred it over a regular bag. Pockets galore indeed, and you can always add more.

Any recommendations for brand/make? Amazon is showing many many generic ones that look suspiciously made in China
