268816 Dan Beck <drumsandbacon@g...> 2019‑07‑03 carvers axe/hatchet
Good afternoon, friends! I recently got into spoon making and green-wood
working, and I would like to get myself a decent carvers axe/hatchet. I
know that if I keep my eyes peeled at garage sales and flea markets, I
should be able to find an axe or hatchet on the cheap that I can rehab. But
I'll be honest - I'm feeling impatient and I'd really rather just find one
that I can use right away with little rehab needed. I'd love to get a
Gransfors Bruks Wildlife Hatchet but there's no way I can drop that kind of
coin right now. The Robin Wood carving axe is also on the top of my list,
but the shipping costs from England also put that just slightly out of my
reach, financially. So, I thought I would reach out to you all and see if
anyone had a decent, user-grade carving axe/hatchet that they might be
looking to sell for a reasonable price. If this is you, please let me know.
Thank you and I hope all of you have a fantastic 4th of July!

Best,
Dan

PS - is it an axe? A hatchet? I see listed both ways.

PPS - sorry that I mainly only post when I'm looking to buy something. I'm
still relatively new to woodworking, so I don't have a lot of knowledge to
share. I'm mainly here to soak up the wisdom you all exude.
