Incredible lil chop chop. Very packable and will be used often. I haven’t used it yet, but it’s extremely high quality. I kind of want a second one.
Like everything with Hoffman, the quality is top level.
I have been wanting one of Liam's axes for a long time and this is my grail hiking axe. This is not a "fancy" axe, but a superbly built axe, handle, and sheath for real world use... and boy is it sharp! I am currently adding BLO layers to the handle (it has an initial couple of coats) until I am comfortable using it in the wild - cannot wait. Also got the belt axe carrier and it is very high quality as well. Cannot recommend Hoffman Blacksmithing enough!
I haven’t had the opportunity to use it yet but the initial inspection reveals very high quality. I believe I have purchased the best money can buy.
This is my second axe, and will not be my last. I have not used it yet, but if it anything like the 19 version I purchased Im sure i wont be disappointed.
Love this little workhorse. Great for the back of my truck and in a backpack. Also looks amazing.
The book was shipped same day or the next morning, packaging was great and the book was in perfect condition.
Blown away by the quality and performance, paired up with my silky saw the Wasatch was a much needed addition to my canoe camping set up. Just got done with a three day trip down the New River and the Wasatch processed all the wood for a couple friends and I and never flinched. Hard woods, soft woods, whatever was available. The legacy guarantee provides peace of mind and really makes you want to go out and use this axe like it was meant to be used. I’d say it is a work of art, that will serve me well for a lifetime and then some!
I had two hatches that were dull went onto YouTube to learn how to sharpen them picked it up real quick went ahead and sharpened them now the razor sharp. This puck is amazing. Love it.
Very well made. Fits perfectly on the neck of the handle. Well worth the wait and cost.
It's a beast... I have a trapper, camp and mountainer axe from Hoffman and this one feels stout. I just want to take it out and destroy something with it 😆
Amazing axe, glad to support a young american company.
I Received my bottle opener axe and really like it. Very light and the perfect size for my key chain. I only have one grip the bottle opener is only good for opening bottles. Mine did not have the flathead screwdriver on top and there is no edge on the axe so i can use it to open packages. Other then that great little opener.
This one of a kind hatchet is built by hand with the forging, the finish grind, the leather strike guard, blade sheath and handle fitment all of incredible quality. I have quickly become a fan of Liam Hoffmans work and am building a heirloom collection of his axes.
Much experience and thought went into this design. Add to that a passion for construction quality that goes above and beyond the competition. Next time I find myself in TN - I'd like to stop in and shake your hand.
What a fantastic companion for anyone who uses an axe or hatchet or simply appreciates the tools of an outdoorsman
