FIELD TESTING the Nessmuk Axe

This week I show you a recreation of the original Nessmuk axe used by the famous outdoorsman and writer, George Washington Sears. We demonstrate it being used for what it was originally designed for, a lightweight but POWERFUL field axe! I also show you how to make a a tripod without cordage that will not slip. The Kephart Axe is SOLD, the Nessmuk is still available. If you are interested in the axes or my early 1900's cookbook please send me an email at mrdyersmusings@honorableoutfitters.com!
