    I made a 2 piece axe for my 4wd bag, used a 4 LB Australian Kelly head and 25mm heavy box section for the handle

    I boiled a length of heater hose and with leather gloves on stretched it over the handle

    Super handy for cutting away clay banks, papa edges and anything that stops the ute from going forward

    A sanding disc on the 4 inch brings it up like new again

    It gets used every time i have one of those " oh shit we are not getting through here" moments

    I have cut 8 inch steam pipe in half with it, then flattened the halves and load strapped them each side of my red land cruiser chassis when it developed a huge crack pulling logs at my uncles, had tiny blood blisters on each fingertip for a month after due to the vibration coming through the handle



    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time
