Garrett Schmidt Woods Cleaver

[Garrett Schmidt]

Just got this one done for a customer. I tried to come up with something that was similar to the competition cutters but with even more width to give it that cleaver look. Before we got it cleaned up, we put it through the paces doing various chopping tasks and with all honesty, I've never had a knife that chopped like this. Granted, the trade off is that it is HEAVY but if you are willing to lug it out in the woods, it would make a nice pile of firewood in a hurry. Hope the new owner enjoys it. Questions/Comments welcome. Thanks!

Nice. A Woods cleaver will cause some havoc. People tell me they are great for harvesting Fat wood
