Ive been looking and reading about axe's, cant make my mind up about them.
i'm wondering is an axe a little 'heavy duty' for bushcraft in general ? i cant really see the need for such a tool unless your cutting down trees.
For shelter building,cutting wood for fuel and other such duties i find my folding saw quiet adequate and my knife for splitting wood.
so any insight on the advantage of carrying an axe would be helpful
