I'm looking for something mainly to cull chickens with. I'm a folding knife kind of guy and don't know much about the hatchet/hawk/big sharp tool realm. Here's what I'm looking for:
One handed use.
Good grind that I can freehand sharpen.
Steel that will let me pass this down to my grandkids.
Cooler than it needs to be (I could cull chickens with a damned rock if I wanted to, and I wouldn't be on BF asking this question if I wanted a $10 walmart machete).
Sub $300.
Some sort of sheath system, preferably something that will attach to a belt.
I'd also like to be able to put this tool to use in my fields trimming saplings and other miscellaneous brush that needs to be cut back.
If I'm misguided in thinking that an axe/tomahawk/hatchet will fit this bill the best, feel free to suggest other possibilities. Thanks for your time.
