Now the cold has set in in Europe I long for the warmth of a wood fire. And what is better to chop your own wood for the fireplace? The minimal, portable and razor sharp Hudson Bay Axe by Best Made Company will help you get the job done easily.

The axe is very versatile as it combines the strengths of a larger axe for chopping and the finesse of a smaller axe for delicate work. I love the combination of the sharpened head of carbon steel and the unfinished helve of Appalachian hickory. An honest tool made of honest materials!
