Ike, My Canoe Axe is the BEST axe I have ever owned! If I go into the woods to do saw or axe work, the canoe axe is ALWAYS with me! I just cleared some hazardous trees today actually. The axe has held up wonderfully! Thank you for such an outstanding tool Ike, 
Jeff

We hope ya’ll have a great weekend out there. Try to stay cool!

Happy Friday folks!

We hope you’ve had a great week. Spring has sprung around here, and we’ve been enjoying gorgeous, perfect weather. What are your plans for this springtime? Hope you’re able to get out and enjoy some adventures + work + time out in the outdoors this season.

We’re thankful for God’s beautiful creation for us to enjoy + use! There’s something refreshing about finishing a whole stack of wood chopping, or clearing a fence row, or floating down the creek in a canoe, or enjoying an evening of fishing after a day’s work. There’s something special about the Axe Life.
