Happy Thursday, folks!

We absolutely love hearing from ya’ll, and an email and photo like these from our amazing customer, Jeff W., just make our day! Thank you so much for sharing, Jeff!

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!

Check out this cool shot from Josh. His Chestnut Hickory Chipper is thriving in the beautiful southern winterland, paired with a custom knife from Lucas Forge. We love it!

Hey there everyone, and we hope you’re having a great Wednesday!

We thought we’d share this picture from Mr. Jonathan…it’s great to see his axe is doing its job well.

Hey there,

Hope you’re all staying warm this chilly January. We’ve had a cold snap here, and a bit of snowy flurries yesterday.

This little Kephart recently got to take a trip into the Sipsey Wilderness area in Alabama. This area has many hiking trails across thousands of acres of woods with creeks, waterfalls, and well…wilderness. 😉

The destination on this particular day was the Big Tree, reportedly the largest tree in Alabama. And that tree is big!! It’s a Yellow Poplar, approximately 150 feet tall, and it takes about 4 grown men to reach around it.

Just to give you a scale, that little Kephart has a foot-long handle. That’s a large timber right there! 😉

The Big Tree is nestled in a big hollow, surrounded by a variety of evergreen bushes and trees, as well as two tall waterfalls spilling over from the top of the ridge. There’s also a large rock overhang, which made for a great spot for a fire and lunch underneath.

And of course the Kephart got to do its job there.

It’s amazing how many places of beauty there are right in our backyard or just a short day trip away. This one was definitely worth it!

Hope you have a great week out there, and thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!

Happy 2020! We hope your New Year has been a good one so far. We’ve been enjoying some beautiful weather here.

With the New Year, Ike’s got some exciting things up his sleeve for Wolf Valley Forge (new pictures, upgrades…)! Thanks for staying tuned!

For now, here’s the latest from the Wolf Valley Forge youtube channel … a Canoe Axe in real use. Hope you enjoy!

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Have a great week out there!

There’s something about the creeks, the woods, the great outdoors. It draws many to its peaceful, quietude. Away from the run and hustle and bustle, it provides a breath of fresh air (pardon the pun). For some it’s a retreat or weekend get-away, while for others it’s more of a way of life. God has created such a big, broad, beautiful outdoors, and it’s a blessing to get to enjoy this masterpiece.

Right now is the perfect time to order your axe, to have it in hand for your fall camping, hunting, canoeing, backpacking, and backwoods adventures. We’d love to see your outdoor snapshots, and what excursions you and your axe find yourselves on this coming season!
