LOL, well his chopper is on the big size & we thought he might like a little one to play with 😉

I've got a Gransförs Mini Hatchet, which is a fantastic little axe, and amazingly sharp, I can shave my arm with mine, but I love the Roselli above, the bearded head let's you get your fingers right behind the head for shaving kindling and carving. It's what I'd go for. There's a slightly bigger version on the site.

Favourite name is the Wildlife Hatchet!

So I should be calling my merlin a splitting maul. You need to get him two really, the splitting maul and the forest axe.

Double bit throwing axe FTW!

Saw those being thrown competitively this last weekend. Good fun.

If you want a really cool axe, this one's a beaut, a proper Viking bearded axe:

Not as pretty as the trad wooden handled axes but it's incredibly sharp and effective. Comes in several sizes.
