{"title":"Bushcraft and Forest Axes","description":"\u003cp\u003eSmall forest axes for shelter, firewood and carving. This is the axe that lives on a pack rather than in a woodshed: long enough in the handle to swing with two hands when you need power, short enough to carve one handed against your knee.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bit is forged thin behind the edge so it bites into green wood instead of bouncing, hardened at the edge and left tough behind it. Hickory or ash handles, hung tight and wedged, with a leather bit cover for pack carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTreat the handle with linseed oil once a season and keep the head dry. Pair it with a \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bushcraft-survival\"\u003ebushcraft knife\u003c\/a\u003e and you have covered almost everything a camp asks for.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/viperedgeforge.com\/collections\/bushcraft-axes.oembed","provider":"Viper Edge USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
