America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.
Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

That seller is in British Pounds currency GBP
51.50 GBP x 1.7 to convert to Canadian Dollars = 87.55 Canadian
+ 15 GBP Shipping from England = 25.50 Canadian
total 113.05 Canadian
Plus the import duties and taxation minimum 5$ for the customs handling fee
List price in Canada ie for any retailer for example is (Lee Valey Tools )
$118.00 Canadian with free shipping during the next few days.
I don't see any cost savings at all from buying from ebay.
(is this price spotting and against the rules? Just quoting List prices and doing currency conversions...)

Yes! Go to Lee Valley and inspect your axe before buying. The one they brought me from the back store had the leather sheath scratched, and the wood grain was not totally parallel to the shaft. They changed it right there, and the one I got was "perfect"

i was at lee valley today for the first time and they had a great selection GB axes too bad they were behind a glass case... almost everything in the store is screwed down or behind glass. If you cant find a SFA look at the GB outdoor axe. I have decided to go with this one.Its not on there website for some reason??

I would highly recomend picking one up from a storefront, or known internet retailer as opposed to ebay. When your are spending this much it's nice to be able to actually talk to the person that pic's your axe.
