Post A little modifacations never hurt anyone,.... right? Reply with quote
So, A mini wetterlings caught my eye the other day while I was picking up my Leek, and I was goning to pick it, but I made myself forget about. Well, that didn't happen and 11 o'clock tonight I got a craving for one, so when I cant but what I need, why not make it?Very Happy

So, I shortend up the trailhawk and sanded the head to give it a "rustic" feel, I like it.



Then shortened.


Now after majority of paint is removed with some 60grit sandpaper.



Then cleaned up a bit.


Now, after being cleaned up again with some 1500 grit sandpaper and a Micro fiber cloth, This is my moderen trio my way.



So what do you guys think, a sutable fix for my mini hatchet?:pVery Happy

With a handle length of 12" it fits me well.
