Anyone have a Wetterlings Les Stroud axe?
It seems like a good choice for general camp use. Mid-sized so packable, but still big enough to split wood without a lot of effort. Has a hammer poll.
No. We buy plastic Fiskars axes
I wanna buy a wetterlings but no one sells them here in Canada other than some fishy ass canoe companies online store. also julia kalthoff is still the queen of /out/

It was on an autumn sale with a free leather sheathe, had to rehang but its a nice boy's axe size with a 2 1/2 lbs head shaped to do both felling and splitting. The red paint has worked out well for easy spotting and safety around the camp. It bites deep and splits logs with a foot diameter in one fell swoop. When I take the time to tie it down it fits perfectly onto my 70 liter Alpine 3
I bought this for potentially taking out bush.
Overall length 660mm (26 inches).
Weight 1.5kg (3.5lbs)

Yup, somebody spent some time on her knees. And they say women have a disadvantage in the workplace.

Looks nice! The length is a little confusing to me though, I prefer a larger end knob and more length to get the most leverage and power out of the smaller axe heads. Plus a little more difficult to repair if it bends, traditional axe handles still have appeal because many types of woods are hard as rock but still pliable and giving to the motions, and once they break all you have to do is slap another handle on there and wedge it into place.

I think the length is a mid size between hatchet and full size axe to compensate for the overall low weight of the axe and the fairly small head. It still allows you to get a good solid swing to get some power behind it without relying entirely on a big fat head to give that inertia on the end of a light handle.
