Well, here's my Wetterlings large hunting axe...

Wonderful Mark! I would have never thought...but how is it being held there to paddle, when it won't fit the vise? BTW, they make one of the best axes in the world!

Excellent slight of vise, Mark! That took me a minute!

Wait til you guys see our new ax attachment - still very much under development, but it's very cool!

I should have posted this a month ago, but alas. And there is some seriousness in it, since I did use the WEPS stones to sharpen my Wetterlings.

It is indeed a great axe, Leo. Here a Gransfors Bruks is regarded as an even better finished axe, but the Wetterlings fits my hands much better. And the WEPS diamond stones took care of the finish... .

Great to hear that you are developing an axe extension, Clay! Will you please make sure that it does low angles as well and that it can sharpen pencils?

I just received my WEPS and am going through the learning process and trying to sharpen everything in sight. Just for kicks, I pulled out an old SOG Tomahawk to see if I could sharpen it on the WEPS. Its definitely no Wetterlings or Gransfors and I have not been too pleased with it so I figured I could do no harm. Set at 30 on each side at its height gives it about a 17 degree angle. So yes, you can sharpen an axe if its a cheapie like the SOG. It is much sharper than before when it honestly was like a dull butterknife and at least works like an axe.

Hahah! ROFL!

Hi Clay, I was splitting some logs on Saturday, any progress on axe attachment?

Not yet, but it's high on the list!

So what am I missing? How do you attach an axe that thick? Color me confused....
