The handle is from a full size one that had broken. It is bigger than a hatchet, smaller than a Hudson Bay axe, and with more cutting power! It is a good companion for the crosscut saw and larger axes.

Boy's Axe - Reviving an Old Axe.
After the Ice Storm of 2013 we have a lot of branches and wood to clear.
It will be a long project. As part of that I dug through my old tool and junk collection. I found this neat little Boy's Axe. It is a felling axe like a full size axe head, but is about 3/4 size, thin, and about 2.25lbs.

North Country Ice Storm of Dec. 2013
We seem to have severe ice storms around Christmas. This one nocked out power for 2-3 days and did damage to trees that we will still be cleaning up in the Spring.
