Rating of the best axes
Relevance:

The ax has appeared in the arsenal of man since time immemorial as the first, after a stick, a tool with a flint blade. He was both a handy tool and a weapon for hunting or protection in case of danger. Axes also changed with the development of man. Bronze, iron, steel ... In the process of evolution, the quality and purpose of the instrument changed. Today, the ax has ceased to be a weapon and is firmly entrenched in the household or tourist backpack. Chopping a tree on a hike, chopping wood in the country - all this is impossible to imagine without him.

New alloys for making blades, well-thought-out ergonomic handles, rubberized pads for a comfortable grip. All innovations cannot be enumerated. But in fact it is the same "old friend" - an ax.
