hi guys well got quite a little kit review and today I'm going to review my new brunswick had hunter and I'd say I haven't used it much but what I have done with it and I'm very impressed so let's take a look at it it's for the smallest that they do it's really snugly into hand it's got a nice chunky handle what I was looking at these I thought would be the handle of the axe axe he looks a bit a little tidy that's intentional and it gives you more grip actually it's really really nice and now the axe head is actually the same as the one that we found on the wildlife maps so I'll just show you those two together to get a bit of parison so you can see the heads are exactly the same the same size it's the same head on now the head itself like all the grants fluxes is made from the high quality carbon steel and it comes with a really fine edge on it there to be actually proved by this in the shop take a straight out study brilliant really ahead of it the haft is stamped with the grants first Brooks global as you can see and it comes with a full grain leather as well just goes on nice and easily just like so popper comes right over sits nice and securely really cool quality as we've come to expect now using this axe is really nice because you can use it for bio - you can actually use this and very similar tonight I've had have got the feather and some sticks with it really easy to do that because of it sort to handle it's it's not really the main thing that I've got this ax bar is actually the process of Bywaters split by all the bits and pieces on that table to give you quick demonstration of how easily easy it is to do that use a stick again because it's short it's very very easy to use just text those limbs on really easily
any effort involved and also because it's so sharp see how quickly I got to do that then and then for doing slightly finer work you can put your finger right in underneath the end of the answer there and then just really dump it down I had to go making a bold your scepter this it was really easy because I can make that nice and smooth and then I've got to use it as a certain like a knife just using that overhand grip and pushing for my thumb to make some nice clean really really useful bit of kit the size of it's absolutely fantastic it'll fit into a nice pouch or you can even show this in a pocket coat or whatever really handy to carry around because it's so small and with all of their axes if you just take a bit of a look the axe head here you'll see that it's stamped by the platen if you made this by hand so this one says mm on it and this one says uni so whoever un is thank you very much for producing such a fantastic bit of kit the axe head sits the axe head sits really nicely on the haft you see it's pinned in really nice there it's got a Hickory handle that's really secure with all of my grandson's axes I've never ever had to place the handle yet which is a really good selling point now the price tag on this axe is not cheap it's a really good piece of kit but actually comes to about think sixty-five pounds in most places the price of these has just got off a little bit
what I do highly recommend it in terms of bushcrafter this is actually fantastic it's a really nice bridge between your apps and your knife is the size of it so if you're interested watch craft and you won't work in your target I highly recommend Roth IRA it's an absolute fantastic
