Wow yet again blown away by the craftsmanship and level of love and care that goes into these axes. Roy my man you do a most excellent job. I absolutely love the new modified council tools hatchet! This completed the his and hers pair! I call him "Forest" and her "Sunset". Could not be more happy and look to do further business with Vintage Axe Works in the future. Thanks again Roy!
