Estwing hatchet modification idea... | Bushcraft USA Forums

I was thinking about turning this edge of my hatchet into a draw knife to make it into an even more useful tool and make use of the extra weight of having a full metal handle.... I wouldn't want to grind much as I'd be losing some integrity but would bringing this one side to a chisel edge...

The lowest priced hatchet EVER found then improved

Adler Rheinland Hatchet, initial impressions - Bushcraft USA Forums

The hatchet also made quick work out of the plum cherry branch lengths. Tried some feather sticking with the cedar , but it isn’t quite THAT sharp out of the box. Got some rough feathers and some shavings and chips out of it. I think the blade has potential to make a section sharp enough for feather sticking.

Vaughan Hatchet Expert Help - Bushcraft USA Forums

Picked up a tiny, tiny Vaughan hatchet at a flea market today and was wondering what it was used for and what it might be worth. Appears to be pretty old with a homemade 12" handle and a embossed leather sheath. The head has Vaughan stamped on it but no other markings. The eye is only 1/4"x3/4"...

Hatchet Mod - Bushcraft USA Forums

Not bragging at all because it's far from perfect but I'm happy with how it's progressing. I had a little time on my hands this week because I've been quarantining with my wife who tested positive for covid on Monday. I picked up this hatchet earlier this year thinking I would try to restore it...

Boy Scouts of America hatchets | Bushcraft USA Forums

I got three BSA hatchets in last week. I have been looking for a hatchet that is sized somewhere between my GB Mini and my Wetterlings Small Hunter (15"). What I find interesting is how different the three are. Two are marked Plumb, the other is marked Collins. The head design, thickness and...
