In our DNA: The Story of the Best Made Axe

While researching axes I came across an intriguing story that I though I would share on KNIVES AND HATCHETS. That story is about Peter Buchanan-Smith and the axe company he founded in 2009 known as Best Made Co. (BMC). Peter had a vision to make an extraordinary axe that could work magnificently in the woods and be beautifully displayed in your man-cave. His axes came with artistic and vibrant painted handles and axe heads stamped with BMC on one side and USA on the other. BMC axes came with catchy names such as “Lincoln”, “Strike Anywhere”, “Hushabye Baby”, “Black Donald”, and “Bobby McGee” for example. The American Felling Axe was solidly made for taking down trees and is drop forged in the United States from American-made 5160 alloy steel that is hardened to a Rockwell harness of 54-56 HRC. The Hudson Bay Axe, a medium-sized axe, is perfect in camp at 2 lbs and built for clearing brush, limbing, and splitting firewood. BMC axes included a durable leather sheaths and shipped in...

"Devil's Toe Nail" | Rustic Handmade Rail Spike Knife

I had an old rail spike laying around and decided to forge it in fire and hammer out a knife. I had no particular design in mind until a few hammer strikes in. The blade is about 3 inches in length with a pointy spike on the opposite end. I wanted to keep it rustic and left some forge scale and tool markings. Can be used as a tool or for defense. This handmade knife is so ugly it earned the name “Devil’s Toe Nail”. I had fun making this knife as I had no set plan on what it was going to look like. 11 inches overall length. No sheath. Cool gift. Availability and Pricing Handmade in the USA.

Fallkniven R2 Scout with Custom Leather Sheath

Fallkniven knives have a reputation for being one of the finest and most reliable fixed blades you can carry in the outdoors. Offering a variety of models, these Swedish knives have a solid following with outdoorsmen and military forces around the world. The Fallkniven F1 is arguably the leading Fallkniven favorite and is in use by Swedish airforce pilots as a survival knife since 1995. One of Fallkniven’s newest additions to their knife lineup is the Fallkniven R2 Scout . This new blade is a compact yet extremely robust fixed blade knife. At 3.25 inches, the Elmax stainless steel blade is nimble in the hands and capable of easily processing wood about wrist size and smaller making it a great knife on the trail, camp, or hunt. It is a great companion knife and is a good knife choice to have in the truck or bugout bag. The Swedish Elmax steel comes razor sharp and maintains its edge after hard use. The R2 is 7.13 inches overall from tip to tang and weighs 132 grams. Fallknive...
