Didn't want to hijack the thread in classifieds, but Fiskars is making some pretty decent tools. I have one of their hatchets that is pretty dang sharp and their handheld bush axe is bad too.

I recently bought one of their one piece metal shovels and other than needing someone to carry it around, it's pretty bad assed too. Has a lifetime warranty.


"Cull" is just another four letter word...

Their limb-loppers with the ratchet gear are one of my favorite tools.

Yep. If you can get the hook and blade around the limb. It will cut it. You might have to twist it a little while cutting, but it will do the job.

My Mom had a set of hedge cutters/loppers in garage and I had never heard of the brand. I thought it was some cheap crap from online shopping. Best I have ever used and it is not even close.

Their loppers are great.

I keep a set of their pruners in my turkey vest. Probably the best set I've owned.

I broke to sets of hand prunners. I just had to send them a pic of broken ones each time they sent me 2 to replace the one I broke. It was my fault trying to cut to big of a branch. So great customer service too

Ames Shovels are the industry standard. A little pricey but your back is worth it, plus you can sharpen them good enough to shave with. 3 different grades of steel in the construction.

I bought one of their x series chopping axes recently. That thing is awesome. I don't split much firewood but planning to get back into tent camping this year with the wife. So I'm trying to talk myself into spending the money on that x series splitting axe. I haven't yet, but when I buy a splitting axe, that's the one it will be.

They make or at least use to make post hole diggers too. They're extremely heavy and will wear you out in a hurry. Regular post hole diggers will wear you out in a hurry too, but the Fiskar brand will quicker.

Yep. I've never had loppers that worked that good. The design is ingenious.

If the limb is too big for the hand pruner, just keep turning the pruner around the limb till it cuts it off.
