    Just a great axe, have the Wildlife hatchet and the Hunters axe, and to be fair, I find myself chosing the hunters axe every time when going out hiking in the wildernes.
    Wildlife hatchet mostly gets used in the backyard for carving and light chopping.
    You sir earned yourself a subscription because of the skinning, so well done for showing it for one of its intended uses. Alot of people forget that its intended as a lightweight multitool for Hunters :)
    Cheers from a Norwegian living in Sweden.

    Good footage! You are 100% right. Here in Germany hunters call it therefore "knocking game out of its hide". That's how it was done for ages!
    Thank you for this education!
    Cheers, K.

    That was really interesting I have never seen a deer 🦌 processed with an ax. I also never knew why the ax had a rounded back. Thank you.

    I don't know what I find more intriguing; the fact that you can actually skin a deer with an axe, or the fact you have had that hat so long that it has lost it's shape

    A polled tomahawk and knife comes to mind. I've carried a hawk with me for quite a while now when deer hunting. it really simplifies things at all stages of processing a deer.

    That's outstanding! I've also got the same axe from the same maker and it gets the job done and then some! I love mine and cycle between it and my custom tomahawk. I put a slightly rounded poll on the hawk for the same reason but left a little flat space so it can still be used as a hammer. It now can flay and hammer just fine. The hunters axe is an outstanding design. Thank you so much for taking the time to do the video 😊

    Skinned and rough processed a buck for a couple young guys who were camped by us, a few years ago, that Shot a deer without knowing how to care for it. One of em filmed me doing it with his phone, because he said his buddies wouldn't believe it otherwise. I did it all, with a GB. I bet he edited out the part where i chewed his ass for shooting a deer before knowing how to care for it, before he showed em the video.
