5 out of 5 starsThis axe is a decent piece for the price. It is relatively light and feels quite sturdy and looks great. The few things I’d like done differently are one; I would prefer the edge to be sharpened at a steeper angle. It doesn’t need to be much but this axe comes with a practically 45 degree bevel on the end it’s rather blunt even for an axe. Secondly, and I only found this out after purposely removing the cap, the half dollar cap on top of the haft is pretty lightly glued on, and while I was trying to remove it, it came off a little too easily in my option ion. I removed the cap with the intention of drilling out the axe to make it smokable. We will see if it works and if I ruin the axe it’ll be my own fault. Overall I would recommend with only a few minor nitpicks.

As written in the original listing, "THIS IS A NON-NATIVE NON-WORKING PIPE FOR DECORATIVE PURPOSES ONLY". It was not made to be disassembled nor to chop down a tree. If you want a camp ax I make them to be sturdy and well edged.

5 out of 5 starsSecond knife i have bought frome this seller. It is a superb piece of work. The only thing I have issue with is both knives I have bought have been dull upon arrival. For the price I feel it should be sharp as all get out.

A dirk is made for thrusting, not slicing. I do not sharpen the sides of the blade on purpose. The tip is "sharp as all get out". My dagger is made to do what it is supposed to do, not slice tomatoes.

5 out of 5 starsQuality always costs more. This Beautiful custom knife is of the finest quality and craftsmanship, I was looking for something that stands out from all the others, this was the only one I could find after a year of looking. I absolutely love it! This is not some guy making knives in his garage, this is a true professional knife maker and craftsman. You won't be disappointed.
