My latest edged weapon/tool. Nice heft, crazy sharp and ready to start splitting whatever needs splittin’..

Nice. I've been thinking on an excuse that I need a small axe etc.

I'm gunna have to look into this one. I dig It !

Very cool! Looks like it’s got some weight behind it! Nice find!

Photo is a little deceiving. Back is wicked nasty, it is near razor sharpened and about a 45-50 degree bevel.


Not a great shot, but shows the bevel..

Damn, their price is less than what I paid, but they don’t have the black micarta...

Which one did you get?

DLT is good to go.

I ordered the Camo only to get an email it was out of stock. Quick phone call-substitute Green and refund the difference to my CC.
They sent it Priority 2 day--wow, DLT really excels in customer service. The leather shealth was really stiff-it got Picard's Leather dressing treatment last nite.
