Description
A sharp and sturdy axe is a wondrous, sometimes terrifying, thing.
For many a sleepy seaside village or monk manned monastery those who wielded them proved unpleasant and less than welcome, but the region of the world that once spurred the most fear, still produces the best tools for felling trees, if not necessarily foes.
From chainsaws to sharpening stones, axes to fixed blades and beyond… there are still Swedish and Scandinavian sorts that know their way around wood and appreciate a well-earned, warm, winter.
The first time you build a fire with wood you’ve collected and keenly cleaved will warm you twice over.
Splitting and stacking logs beats a gym satisfaction wise, any day.
