Hello All,
looking for "right" axe for solo hunting. Any suggestions? The main purpose is tree chopping and similar job, but heavy enough to carry it.
Thanks

I don't carry an axe on my solo hunts unless I'm car camping. There's always a folding saw in my hunt kit however.
what about camping fire "russian style" ? even car can be cold :)
Wetterling or Gransfor are good quality brand axes ... lower end Fiskars ... check them out. : )
I have a very small wetterlings that works awesome. I think it was around $100
I believe Wetterlings has been bought out and closed by gransfors (keeping employees and forging equipment), so gransfors is pretty much the only player in town now. The small forest axe or hunters axe is probably the best compromise between portability and functionality. I keep one under my truck seat and it has saved my ass a few times when I get my chainsaw bar stuck like a noob or I have an impromptu campfire.
You’re right! Too bad!:-(
No doubt an excellent axe. By far the best we ever had. Bought 4 (all sizes) years ago & gave 1 to LT as a b-day present.
I’m sure that there are more decent makes. Just remember the old adage you get what you pay for

I've tried to find it online but they always out of stock.
Can you please post a link from where I can buy a small one?
Looks like Wetterlings Small Hunting Axe (1.5 lbs) with 16" Handle #115 is good for hunting..
