Thread: Bow saw and axe advice

ive used el cheapo small pruning hand saw and small axe for a while, thinking as im hitting 50 this year im going to shout myself some decent stuff for a change!

mainly for clearing around the odd track, batch and clearings for bivy etc

heard good things about silky bow saws???? but know very little about axes other than one sides bloody sharp and the others good for knocking in pegs / wooden stakes. don't need a massive axe, in fact im guessing a decent tomahawk would do the job?

happy to buy decent old school or modern what ever, as long as they work.

Constructive comments happily received, and not really interested in a chain saw, sometimes quiet is good! BUT im guessing that may well be next??
