This axe is also very useful for the woodworker and sculptor for the accurate removal of waste stock. Great for green woodworking, trimming billets for country chairs, spoons and bowl making.

Thank you for looking.

Very Very Nice!

If I had a use for it, it would be sold already. I don't imagine this will be available long.
 
Now that is cool! If I hadn't just bought three knives, I would buy this just for the coolness factor! Great job.:D

If someone here gets it and reads this I'd love to read a review of it. Really like the design but I'd like to know how it compares to some other custom axes before I buy one.:thumbup:

I sold five of these little guys to BF members. Perhaps one will write a review.

I bought one of these from this maker earlier this year & could not be happier! Fits in the back pocket during yard work & I am reinventing my hatchet skills last used a scout. My wife thinks it is neat & if we ever get time to go camping I may buy another LBA for her. It just feels good in the hand.

This is an unsolicited endorsement from a happy Knife Knut customer. No display item here, I am deforesting our suburban homestead in my free time.

Question – a lanyard hole or not? I am still deciding. Stephen5, a lined lanyard hole may appeal to some folks; I like them on my user knives as I am a water nut & knives do not float.

Sincerely,
Maineboatman
 
I'm glad that you like and use your little axe Maineboatman.

I was also thinking of a lanyard hole and a sheath with a belt loop.
More things to think about.

Thanks everyone for taking a look and for the nice words.
