While back a bud gave this to me. It's an A.G. Russell "Pocket Safety Axe", made in Taiwan. It's only about 10.5" long, so really doesn't even function as a hatchet. Plus, it seems like it would be better with a belt sheath.

Kinda looks like a toy, except a kid could get hurt. I guess it's supposed to be a copy of a Marbles safety axe. From the website it sells for 80 bucks. The write-up looks pretty impressive quality-wise. They even did this short video. Still not sure the point.

You need to get out your torch and put some of the flame stripes on the handle.
It'll work better then.
And look more manly.

You could always just relegate it to kindling chopper or something. Little axes are neat and handy, as long as you don't try and do too much with them lol.

Then why did you even take it? If someone tries to give me something I have no use for, I politely thank them for thinking of me and that I have no use for it, and tell them to gift it to someone that would use and appreciate it.....

If you don't know what to do with it, send it to me. I'll put it in the tool box on my truck. Hatchets come in handy.

Yep. There’s probably 2 or 3 different ones rolling around in my toolbox. Along with at least a couple of axes.
