And so it's a pretty sweet little. Yeah, it's amazing. There's other things, you know, like I slightly rounded this pole here. It's just a little nuance because when you pound a steak in, if you picture it, if it's convex. when you're pounding it, it's going to blow the fibers apart. If it has just a slight concave, it helps hold the fibers together.

And so it's a little nuanced, not too flat because you want to still be able to use the back as you would.

Oh, so the axe is super important to chop through ice in a winter situation, which you probably hopefully won't need. But what I use an axe all the time for is when I'm when it's wet and rainy and you need to start a fire, like it's, it's hard to get to the middle of dry wood if just a knife or a saw.

And so you can, I can go out there, find a dead tall tree, you know, dead standing tree, chop it down, split it apart, split it open, get to the dry wood on the inside, shave it some little curls and have a fire going pretty fast. And so if I have an ax, I feel always confident that I can get, a quick fire in whatever weather. And I wouldn't feel the same without it in that regard.

So that's the main thing. Um, of course you can use it. I use it if you're taking an animal apart or if you're, uh, you know, all kinds of, uh, What else? Building a shelter, skinning teepee poles or whatever you're doing. What's the use of a saw versus an axe? I greatly prefer an axe. A saw, though, its value goes up quite a bit when you're in hardwoods.

Like when you're in a hardwood, oaks and hickory and things like that, they're a lot harder to chop. So a saw is pretty nice in those situations, I'd say. In those situations, I'd like to have both. In the north woods and in more coniferous forests, I don't think there's enough advantages that a saw incurs. With a good axe, you'll see people with little...

camp axes and stuff and they just don't think they like axes it's like well you haven't actually tried to try a good one first and get good with it the one thing about an axe they're dangerous so you need to like practice always control it with two hands make sure you're not you know where it's gonna go it doesn't hit you or when you're chopping like say you're creating something that you're not doing it on rocks and stuff so that it's you're doing on top of wood so that when you're hitting the ground you're not dulling your axe you know there's you gotta be a little bit thoughtful about it have you ever injured yourself on an axe in the early days oh yeah
