What do y'all find to chop with them lil' hatchets ("axlings")? I used to
love to chop wood, but always used a full-size axe -- one was a Sears that
my father bought circa 1963 (my brother still has it), and t'other was a
backyard forged head on a hand-carved handle, Kenya, circa 1966. The tree
trimmers came and chopped 2' thick limbs from the trees near the house
(very pretty watermelon-colored-with-white-veins wood; the pink the color
of our Sandia Mountains at dusk. The trimmers used *pangas.*). I'd go out
on a weekend afternoon and chop those logs into smaller ones -- wish I had
the option to do that now. As good exercise as digging ditches, but far
more fun.On Wed, Jul 22, 2015 at 4:37 PM, Liesl <[email protected]> wrote: > I know that there are Hatcheters on this list serve because some of you > reply to me off-list.
