Helko Werk Traditional Hinterland Double Bit Axe

Helko Werk Traditional Hinterland Double Bit Axe - 3.5 Lb Head, 30 Inch Handle
Handmade in Germany
The American inspired Hinterland Double Bit is a capable, highly effective felling tool, suited for large timber. If inclined, the user is able to profile each blade differently and may use, for instance, one edge for splitting and the other for cutting. Traditionally, one bit was used for heavy work that was prone to dull the blade, while the other was kept with a finely honed edge. ​When the logging industry was still reliant on axes for felling trees, one side of the double bit was commonly used to chop undercuts for large timber, while the other was held in reserve for fine cutting. The head is buffed and polished to a highly reflective finish that reduces cutting friction and improves rust resistance.

Sorry, aber das Video ist eine schlechte Demonstration.
Ich weiß ja, das man nicht einfach einen Baum fällen darf,
aber für eine Demonstration kann man auch mal einen Förster fragen,
oder einfach einen Holzstamm organisieren,
den man umhauen kann.
Tja, leider bin ich nun genau so schlau wie vorher,
ist diese Axt geeignet in meinem Privatgrund den Baum zu fällen?
Bei über 200 Euro wäre eine kleine Demonstration hilfreich.
Oder ist es mehr eine Dekogeschichte, die verdammt gut aussieht.
