At camp, our neighbors from Arlington Va were there. They are a great family and we enjoy them when they are at camp. I was only there for less than 48 hrs, so Saturday night, I was going to have a backyard fire in the pit.
I should preface this with the following: All the neighbors and friends at camp know my "International Signal". If a campfire or the Tiki Torches or both are lit in the back yard, I'm in the backyard getting lit.
All are welcome, the more the merrier.
It was a fun night and the axes were used to make some smaller wood to start the fire. They are sharp too. I cut my hand a bit taking off one of the leather sheaths. I just let it bleed as it was small. The axe heads are both the same size, but the handles are very different in length. The longer handle is a couple inches shorter than what Council offers. I wish mine were that extra two inches, but it's ok. The smaller handle was more like a hatchet with a heavy head. Not bad, not great.
Here are the photos.
