hey /out/ im in the market for a new axe. and ive been in love with the small forest axe by Gransfors Bruks but lately ive been thinking. its only 47cm long and according to Mors kochanski´s teachings an axe should be from yous armpit to the tip of your fingers and that should be 67cm for me. should i consider getting the scandinavian forest axe instead? since that is 64cm long?
i already have a Hultafors that is about 44cm so that fills my "hatchet" role
any thoughts? should i still get the small forest axe or get the longer. slightly heavier scandinavian forrest axe?
i mostly do basecamp type outings where i get to a spot and stay for multiple days. not long stretch hikes so weight is not as much of a concern
any input appreciated
