## Overview

The Council Tool Flying Fox Woodsman Hatchet is a 1.625 lbs multi-use axe featuring a 22" straight hickory handle and a hardened poll that doubles as a hammer. Designed for both wood-cutting chores and competitive urban axe throwing, it blends vintage-inspired design with modern durability. Ideal for campers, bushcrafters, and tradesmen seeking a versatile, field-maintainable tool made in the USA.

## Description

The Flying Fox Woodsman Hatchet is a multi-use camp hatchet in the Sport Utility Line, that was developed with specific design parameters, so that it functions well for wood-cutting chores, but also qualifies for competitive throwing in both major urban axe throwing organizations. Head weight 1 lbs. 11 oz Bit length 3 7/8” Hardened bit and poll Handle has a large hatchet eye, trimmed to be under 22” (Hickory) The overall design takes elements found in vintage hatchets from the mid-20th century, and gives modern affirmation to those hatchets from yesteryear. This hatchet is unique In this market, as it is one of the very few hatchets that has a hardened poll. This poll can be used as a hammer to drive nails, spikes, and other fasteners, as well as aid in the process of construction, demolition, and some mechanical applications where a slight “adjustment” is needed. The Flying Fox is a great option for campers, backpackers, day-trippers, bushcrafters, preppers, homesteaders, hunters, trappers, tradesmen, ranchers, everyday axe enthusiasts, and competitive throwers.

Review: For starters, this not a top tier production axe like Granfors Bruks, but it also by no means a $15 dollar store special. This is a great intro axe for someone wanting their first quality axe without the $150+ price tag. On the other hand, this is an excellent choice for a yard/rough work axe in those situations where you don’t want to risk damaging a $200 axe. This one also has a hardened poll, which makes it an ideal yard tool. That said, mine arrived unsharped, which was not a huge issue for me to fix, but sharpening and profiling an axe bit is not a skill everyone has. If you are experienced in axe maintenance (or sharpening in general) and have a file and puck handy you have nothing to worry about. I actually kind of liked being able to customize the edge to my preference out of the gate. It’s not quite as hard of steel like some higher end axes, but does that lends to better field maintainability. The haft isn’t of the most ideal grain orientation, but it’s adequate for a work axe. So, you get what you pay for folks. It’s got “good bones” if you will regardless. Even if you need to put a better haft on it at some point, the head itself honestly is great quality, and i had little trouble getting mine to perform on par with some of my higher end axes.
Review: This is my sixth axe/hatchet, but first Council Tool item. The head to haft fit is very well done, very tight, with no gaps. It arrived very sharp, surprisingly sharp. It is much sharper than the three Gransfors Bruks I have purchased and better finish on the metal overall. The handle is very comfortable in hand. The finish on the wood is minimal, if any, and needs some tung oil or linseed oil. Frankly, I’d rather do my own finishing on the wood, so that is fine with me. As to this model, the size is handy in the large hatchet to small pack axe size. It handles really nicely. Overall, A+ for Council Tools. Based on the quality of this one, I’ll buy some of their other sizes. Recommend. 😊👍

*by D***. on 24 February 2025*

Very good quality. I threw the axe a few times and it seems to be great for that but I like this as a normal use axe so much that I am never throwing it again. I have a few watl axes I can throw instead. This axe is staying with my camping gear. The quality and durability on this axe is amazing. I took a few inches off the handle, stained it and got a head cover. Awesome axe
