Gave the 40 an Axe, not "THE" Axe :) (1 Viewer)

[B y r o n]

Well actually I was just replacing an old axe that had gone missing or bit the dust for some reason. Looking around on the web I located this Fiskars 28".

My old axes always had wooden handles which eventually died from exposure. Now I'll see how this composite one holds up. I found it locally at Sears for just over $30 on close out sale.

After a few light modifications to the mount because the head is slightly thicker and the handle slightly larger I introduced it to its' new home.

Now the blade on this axe is nice and sharp from the factory and it came with a protective cover. I just had to figure out how to modify it so that it would work on my carrier. After making some reference marks with painters tape it was a simple matter of a few cuts.

Now I don't have to worry about small kids or curious adults cutting their fingers on the blade.

Always better to be safe than sorry!

Bought one of those fiskars axes last year, great axe for the money, I don't have a single complaint about it. Mounting looks great on your front bumper.
