An incredible tool ! So happy with purchase !
Just received my Wood Bullet and I must say…. Unbelievable craftsmanship and even more impressive was how it performs! I was so impressed I immediately ordered a second one! Great design Buckin!!! And Liam’s skill is unmatched!
Yeah, I really like the sheet for the hat. It really adds to the whole look of the act and it protects naturally from any possible getting cut when handling so yeah it’s a very well-made item. Thank you.
My Hoffman marked Artic Fox is a collector's item. I have one from Frost River backpack too.
Everything about this axe is pretty perfect, the handle is very nice and feels great in the hands and moves very smoothly. Ive tried it out in a few different species and its splits everything great and does not get stuck
Excellent workmanship,well balanced axe. Just what I wanted.
Craftsmanship is top notch. The hang looks perfect and the quality of the grain on the handle is A+. Could be a smidge thinner, which I’ll likely do to fine tune the handle. The sharpening is perfect! Haven’t measured the degrees of the grind but looks under 25 degrees. 24 inch handle length seemed a good compromise given my other set ups, and I figured it’ll get better at light splitting as the edge moves back over many many sharpenings. The grind is mostly flat, no observable convex but it’s it thick and will likely chop well. The sheath is made of thick, high quality leather, and looks like it’ll last a long time. Excited to use it soon. Shipping was a little slow, but packaging was also top notch to keep the axe from getting damaged. Otherwise great tool and look forward to passing it down.
Love it! I’ll need to buy another one. My son keeps fighting me for it.
This thing is a beast and a work of art at the same time. Too nice to put to work but begging to be put to work at the same time. Can’t wait for the wood bullet.
As a UPS driver that understands the importance of proper packing and utilizing quality boxes Hoffman knocked it out of the park with the packing peanuts and uline box rated at the correct crush rating. Overall presentation amd unboxing is exactly what I'd expect from a handmade premium product and left me quite satisfied having spent a good chunk of change. The booklet and sticker was a nice touch. If you're on the fence about spending the extra $$ on the leather strike guard - do it! Well worth it and completes the overall look and smells great. Can't wait to see how the leather breaks in and ages over years of hard use. Right out of the box this axe is stupid sharp and ready to get to work. Performance was exactly what you'd need for a splitter. Good bite but also releases with ease and well balanced - love it.
Looks and feels great! Great company that will work with you!
Aside from the hickory grain running perpendicular to the swing axis (which I learned has very little effect on a short 15 inch lightweight hatchet). The hand forged axe head is perfectly hung with superb fit and finish (10 out of 10) using contrasting dark [walnut] wedge which is a near-perfect match for the embossed leather mask, assembled with brass hardware. I immediately treated the handle end grain with pure Tung oil and the blade with Wicked Wax. The edge grain of the mask got a bead of selle anatomica Saddle Sauce to seal the grain. While I do plan on using this finely crafted tool around camp as well as in the mountains, I expect it to easily outlast me in this world. I hope whoever possesses it far, far in the future will appreciate this near-perfect survival/wilderness companion.
Solid axe, beautiful craftsmanship, awesome Customer Service. Very happy with the puchase
My boyfriend says it splits like a dream.
The axe is a pice of art !!! It is so beautiful that I’m afraid to use it .
Love it! The wood bullet is the perfect splitting axe
This thing is a work of art to say the least. I had a hard time swinging it for fear of damaging it. Wanted to hang it on the wall but I can tell alot of time and sweat went into making this axe!!! It will be around for many years to come. Thanks Liam and Buckin for bringing this axe into existence.
It’s amazing- way better than expected! Thank you and Buckin
