Hoffman Blacksmithing's flagship Camp Axe is what helped start it all.

The 3 pound Camp Axe packs a bigger punch than our 2.25 pound version and is available in handle lengths ranging from 24-32 inches, making it a versatile boys axe, or full size axe. Throw it in the back of your truck, ATV, or saddle; this heirloom tool will serve you well with most tasks around your house or in the forest. Hoffman Blacksmithing's iconic original stepped poll lengthens the poll and affects weight distribution without adding additional weight to the axe head. Like all of our axes, the poll is hardened to prevent mushrooming.

This Wasatch is a work of art

This Wasatch is a work of art. Though not intended as art, it is a work of beauty and a tool of service, with a great sharp edge, and the promise of years of enjoyment for the various uses for which it was purchased! I am a grateful owner of a Hoffman production. In fact, I just purchased the Mountain to Sea release.

best axe belt holster available.

best axe belt holster available that I am aware of. quality leather snaps solidly around belt. while axe head sheaths are particular to each axe, this quality axe holster is good for all the axes I have in multiple brands. very satisfied with purchase.

Flawless

The craftmanship on my axe exceeded the high expectations I already had. Every single detail has been considered from shape, forge, grind, shape of handle, expert hanging of the handle-even the wedge is perfect, and finally the quality and fit of the mask. Performance on wood is flawless. It is a factually perfect design, executed flawlessly. Zero negatives.

Wasatch compact

Nice looking and good weight. Liked the camp axe and wanted a more compact axe but not a hatchet.

This is a great product

This is a great product. The design is beautiful, and the handle feels very comfortable in hand. However, I'm not sure what caused it, but there was some rust on the blade when it arrived. It took a bit of effort to clean off, but overall, I'm very satisfied. I'm eagerly looking forward to the additional product I ordered!

Mini camper 12”

Perfect size to fit into the backpack! Good camp axe with killer edge right out of the box. Highly recommended.

Beautiful piece of craftsmanship

Beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Perfect to finish any keychain

As good as it gets

Process, people, fit and finish are all exceptional. Early swings suggest it'll be enjoyed with every use. Octagonal handles are absolutely the answer if you're on the fence....

Hi Guys,
Haven't got into deep woods yet, been volunteering for emergency duty in my area. Expect to be whacking away at some red and white oak and some soft wood too. Be in touch!
