Almike mates 1 lb. head with a 16\" American hickory handle and may be worn on the belt, tucked into a bag or backpack, or stashed in your vehicle's EDC kit. Almike is styled like a traditional Swedish axe with rustic presentation that the uninitiated may perceive as unfinished, but the knowledgeable will recognize as beautiful. Each Almike comes with a leather sheath, cardboard storage box, and detailed user's manual. This is an axe you will use for many years and will probably hand down as well. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The steel head weighs 1 lb. and is hand-forged from Swedish steel in a forge that has been in operation since 1697. During the transformation from billet to head, the steel is hammered multiple times to increase its density and durability and reach its final shape. The iconic and unusual head shape of a Swedish axe has deep cheeks for maximum contact with the wood for resistance to loosening, but forward of the cheeks is a deep finger notch that lets the user grab very high on the handle (nearly to the centerline of the bit) for fine bushcraft work as well as general camp tasks. (Inferior axes have good wood contact or finger clearance, but not both.) After reaching its final shape, the head is differentially tempered with the bit hardened to hold a sharp edge, and the eye and poll left soft to remain resilient. In the proud Swedish style, the head is ground and polished only at the bit and the remainder of the head is left in its organic, forged state to showcase the great skill of the workers who were able to achieve such compound curves and complex shapes using only the forge. (When an axe head is ground all over, it is not a sign of quality but rather inferiority because the ground finish was applied to hide the crude forgings, imperfections, and general lack of skill of the workers.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe American hickory handle is 16\" long and has many subtle but complex shapes to maximize the axe's utility for various tasks. The handle is curved in an S shape to permit the user to choke up on the handle right under the head for fine carving control or hold the handle at the knob for full power during chops. The S shape lets the user generate more power and accelerate through the full swing by bending the wrist and snapping the last three fingers shut right before impact without ever having to bend the wrist in an awkward manner (as with a straight handle). The handle flares into a knob that is larger than the rest of the handle so that the user can maintain a light and lively grip without the axe wanting to escape from the user's hand at impact. Tight grips lead to less power rather than more, so the cross-section of the handle is oval rather than round to prevent the axe from turning in the hand during use (even with a light grip), and the sharp end of the oval is aligned with the bit so that the user can orient and index the head easily and intuitively during use. The knob area has a hole if you want to use Almike with a lanyard or hang it on a wall during storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hickory handle is hung on the head using both wooden wedge and steel conical wedge to expand the wood in all directions to ensure many years of hard use without loosening. After hanging, the handle is treated with linseed oil, which penetrates deeply into the the hickory in a liquid state and then polymerizes into a solid over time to strengthen the wood and protect it against drying out and cracking. In contrast to a varnished finish, the protection with linseed oil is \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7f c2-15 c2-12 c2-7g c2-7h\"\u003ein\u003c\/em\u003e the wood rather than \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7f c2-15 c2-12 c2-7g c2-7h\"\u003eon\u003c\/em\u003e it. A linseed oil finish also does not affect the coefficient of friction of wood and cause blisters the way varnish does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo maintain your Almike, clean off any sap and dirt. When the axe is dry, apply a treatment of a waterproof drying oil like tung oil to both wood and steel to seal them against the elements. To protect the leather sheath against drying out, treat it with \u003cspan class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7f c2-15 c2-12 c2-7g c2-7j\"\u003eObenauf's Heavy Duty LP\u003c\/span\u003e or \u003cspan class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7f c2-15 c2-12 c2-7g c2-7j\"\u003eObenauf's Leather Oil\u003c\/span\u003e.

Now the WCSA is available as a standalone item and can be fitted to your Hi-Lift All-Cast Jack (or any other Hi-Lift Jack made by Bloomfield Manufacturing Co.).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe WCSA replaces the top-clamp clevis that comes with the All-Cast Jack and increases the All-Cast Jack's strength, durability, and utility. Alternatively, the WCSA may also be fitted to the bottom of the All-Cast Jack in place of the foot piece for working in confined spaces where the foot piece will not fit or angled surfaces where the foot piece will tend to slip. Depending on where the WCSA is mounted to the Hi-Lift Jack's standard, it can be used for winching, clamping, or spreading to 5,000 lbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe WCSA has a unique design. There are two 7\/8\" holes for mounting 3\/4\" Bow Shackles. The thermometer-shaped slotted hole in the side accepts a 3\/8\" chain for hand-winching with the Hi-Lift Jack. There is a peak-shaped cutout at the bottom for gripping the edge of a door during spreading operations such as by firefighters to pry open a wrecked vehicle with passengers inside. The WCSA's carriage bolt and wing nut enable the WCSA to be mounted anywhere on the Hi-Lift's standard. All parts are yellow zinc plated for corrosion resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wing nut lets the user attach, detach, and move the WCSA along the Hi-Lift's standard without tools, but the wing nut also lets thieves steal the WCSA. If you want to secure your WCSA to your Hi-Lift, the 1\/2\" x 13 carriage bolt and wing nut share the same thread size with the Hi-Lift Jack Versatile Locking Knob. Adding a Versatile Locking Knob will marry your WCSA to your jack and a key will be required to separate the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUp to now, the WCSA had to be detached from the Hi-Lift's standard to fit or fit a handle isolator. The new Hi-Lift Jack Quick Fist Handle-Keeper solves that problem and may be fit and unfit without disturbing the WCSA because the Quick Fist Handle-Keeper slides onto the Hi-Lift Jack's handle, but then clips to the Hi-Lift Jack's standard and then wraps around it using Quick Fist technology and materials. Because the Quick Fist Handle-Keeper does not slide over the jack standard, whatever is attached to the standard can remain in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-Lift Jack Part Number -  WCSA-101\u003cbr\u003eUniversal Product Code -  052767001011\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Expedition Exchange","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42091614371882,"sku":"WCSA-101","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/5353\/0154\/files\/rs_w_1200_h_1200_888c2a74-42a4-46b1-a2ad-8d2b38e1aa1b.webp?v=1727304271"},{"product_id":"opinel-no-12-carbone-steel-folding-knife-001256","title":"Opinel No.12 Carbone Steel Folding Knife (001256)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cspan class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7a c2-15 c2-12 c2-7b c2-7e\"\u003eOpinel\u003c\/span\u003e No.12 Carbone Steel Folding Knife has been a favorite camp knife for more than 130 years, and it remains a favorite today among bushcrafters and survivalists because:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eit is a very large and capable knife for field tasks at 11\" long unfolded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etransport of such a large knife is easy because it folds to only 6.3\" long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eweight is minimal at less than four ounces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eno sheath is required for the knife to be carried safely, which lightens the overall load even further\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe beech handle does not transmit heat or cold to the hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe blade has a sharpened, 90-degree spine for striking ferro rods like the ESEE Knives RAT Match\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe No.12 is largest knife that will still fit into the popular ESEE Knives Aluminum Survival Tin (it just barely fits diagonally)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ewood and carbon steel are easy to stain and modify to personalize the knife to one's tastes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe knife is inexpensive enough that the owner can acquire several and stash them among different packs and kits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade is made of \u003cstrong class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7a c2-15 c2-5t c2-7b\"\u003eXC90 carbon steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and is 12cm long.

Jonaker is suitable for gardening, camping, bushcraft, and wilderness survival use. Jonaker has a head weight of 1 lb. and a handle length of 9.4 inches. Jonaker is styled like a traditional Swedish axe with rustic presentation that the uninitiated may perceive as unfinished, but the knowledgeable will recognize as beautiful. Each Jonaker comes with a leather sheath, cardboard storage box, and detailed user's manual. This is an axe you will use for many years and will probably hand down as well.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The steel head weighs 1 lb. and is hand-forged from Swedish steel in a forge that has been in operation since 1697. During the transformation from billet to head, the steel is hammered multiple times to increase its density and durability and reach its final shape. The iconic and unusual head shape of a Swedish axe has deep cheeks for maximum contact with the wood for resistance to loosening, but forward of the cheeks is a deep finger notch that lets the user grab very high on the handle (nearly to the centerline of the bit) for fine bushcraft work as well as general camp tasks. (Inferior axes have good wood contact or finger clearance, but not both.) After reaching its final shape, the head is differentially tempered with the bit hardened to hold a sharp edge, and the eye and poll left soft to remain resilient. In the proud Swedish style, the head is ground and polished only at the bit and the remainder of the head is left in its organic, forged state to showcase the great skill of the workers who were able to achieve such compound curves and complex shapes using only the forge. (When an axe head is ground all over, it is not a sign of quality but rather inferiority because the ground finish was applied to hide the crude forgings, imperfections, and general lack of skill of the workers.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe American hickory handle is 9.4\" long and has many subtle but complex shapes to maximize the axe's utility for various tasks. The handle is curved in a bowed shape to permit the user to choke up on the handle right under the head for fine carving control or hold the handle at the knob for full power during chops. The bow shape lets the user generate more power and accelerate through the full swing by bending the wrist and snapping the last three fingers shut right before impact without ever having to bend the wrist in an awkward manner (as with a straight handle). The handle flares into a knob that is larger than the rest of the handle so that the user can maintain a light and lively grip without the axe wanting to escape from the user's hand at impact. Tight grips lead to less power rather than more, so the cross-section of the handle is oval rather than round to prevent the axe from turning in the hand during use (even with a light grip), and the sharp end of the oval is aligned with the bit so that the user can orient and index the head easily and intuitively during use. The knob area has a hole if you want to use Jonaker with a lanyard or hang it on a wall during storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hickory handle is hung on the head using both wooden wedge and steel conical wedge to expand the wood in all directions to ensure many years of hard use without loosening. After hanging, the handle is treated with linseed oil, which penetrates deeply into the the hickory in a liquid state and then polymerizes into a solid over time to strengthen the wood and protect it against drying out and cracking. In contrast to a varnished finish, the protection with linseed oil is \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7f c2-15 c2-12 c2-7g c2-7h\"\u003ein\u003c\/em\u003e the wood rather than \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7f c2-15 c2-12 c2-7g c2-7h\"\u003eon\u003c\/em\u003e it.

It is the perfect partner to the REYR Gear First Cast 4wt Travel Fly Rod + Reel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike a traditional landing net, the Insta-Net is worn on the belt like a sidearm.

When the Insta-Net is drawn from the holster, it uncurls and opens instantly and automatically. There are no hinges or joints to break or get fouled because the Insta-Net uses the net's steel perimeter as a giant spring. When deployed, the net measures 15\" long x 12\" wide x 9\" deep--just as large as other nets. The clear silicone net is easier on fish than nylon nets because the clear silicone is less abrasive to the fish's skin. Hooks also do not get caught in this net. When you are done with the Insta-Net, simply fold up the net and reholster it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Insta-Net's handle is made from teak. Teak's high oil content, tensile strength, and very tight grain combine to make it tremendously resistant to water, rot, fungus, and mildew--even when not treated or maintained in any way. This is why teak is used on boats, and why Handy Pak Net Co. uses teak on this Insta-Net. The teak on this handle is untreated on purpose and will turn a beautiful gray color with time and use. The gray color is purely cosmetic and many teak users actually like the gray color and find it desirable. If you want a darker or more brown color to your handle, you can treat the raw teak with a waterproof oil such as tung oil to help seal the teak against against the atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe holster is hand-tooled cowhide and is worn on the belt like a handgun holster. The teak handle is oriented vertically in the holster, so the rig may be worn strong-side or crossdraw. There are 1 7\/8\" slots cut into the rear face, so the holster is an excellent match with a 1.5\" belt. There are six small drainage holes at the bottom so that water does not pool in the holster. The holster is plain cowhide so that the user can decide if he wants to dye the holster or not before applying his leather protectant of choice. Of course the best choice for that is \u003ca class=\"x-el x-el-a c2-t c2-u c2-7c c2-w c2-x c2-7d c2-z c2-7e c2-3 c2-11 c2-12 c2-13 c2-14\" href=\"https:\/\/expeditionexchange.com\/shop-all-products\/ols\/products\/obenaufs-heavy-duty-lp-leather-preservative-8-oz-jar-0103\" rel=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-78 c2-15 c2-12 c2-79 c2-7c\"\u003eObenauf's Heavy Duty LP Leather Preservative\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, the time-tested blend of natural oils, beeswax, and propolis that conditions, restores, waterproofs, preserves, protects, and beautifies leather products while always allowing the leather to breathe.

Kisa is also an excellent size for vehicle pioneer kits. Kisa is styled like a traditional Swedish axe with rustic presentation that the uninitiated may perceive as unfinished, but the knowledgeable will recognize as beautiful. Each Kisa comes with a leather sheath, cardboard storage box, and detailed user's manual. This is an axe you will use for many years and will probably hand down as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe steel head weighs 2 lbs. and is hand-forged from Swedish steel in a forge that has been in operation since 1697. During the transformation from billet to head, the steel is hammered multiple times to increase its density and durability and reach its final shape. The iconic and unusual head shape of a Swedish axe has deep cheeks for maximum contact with the wood for resistance to loosening, but forward of the cheeks is a deep finger notch that lets the user grab very high on the handle (nearly to the centerline of the bit) for fine bushcraft work as well as general camp tasks. (Inferior axes have good wood contact or finger clearance, but not both.) After reaching its final shape, the head is differentially tempered with the bit hardened to hold a sharp edge, and the eye and poll left soft to remain resilient. In the proud Swedish style, the head is ground and polished only at the bit and the remainder of the head is left in its organic, forged state to showcase the great skill of the workers who were able to achieve such compound curves and complex shapes using only the forge. (When an axe head is ground all over, it is not a sign of quality but rather inferiority because the ground finish was applied to hide the crude forgings, imperfections, and general lack of skill of the workers.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe American hickory handle is 26\" long and has many subtle but complex shapes to maximize the axe's utility for various tasks. The handle is curved in an S shape to permit the user to choke up on the handle right under the head for fine carving control or hold the handle at the knob for full power during chops. The S shape lets the user generate more power and accelerate through the full swing by bending the wrist and snapping the last three fingers shut right before impact without ever having to bend the wrist in an awkward manner (as with a straight handle). The handle flares into a knob that is larger than the rest of the handle so that the user can maintain a light and lively grip without the axe wanting to escape from the user's hand at impact. Tight grips lead to less power rather than more, so the cross-section of the handle is oval rather than round to prevent the axe from turning in the hand during use (even with a light grip), and the sharp end of the oval is aligned with the bit so that the user can orient and index the head easily and intuitively during use. The knob area has a hole if you want to use Kisa with a lanyard or hang it on a wall during storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hickory handle is hung on the head using both wooden wedge and steel conical wedge to expand the wood in all directions to ensure many years of hard use without loosening. After hanging, the handle is treated with linseed oil, which penetrates deeply into the the hickory in a liquid state and then polymerizes into a solid over time to strengthen the wood and protect it against drying out and cracking. In contrast to a varnished finish, the protection with linseed oil is \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7c c2-15 c2-12 c2-7d c2-7e\"\u003ein\u003c\/em\u003e the wood rather than \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-t c2-u c2-3 c2-7c c2-15 c2-12 c2-7d c2-7e\"\u003eon\u003c\/em\u003e it. A linseed oil finish also does not affect the coefficient of friction of wood and cause blisters the way varnish does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo maintain your Kisa, clean off any sap or dirt.

Not only will your blades be more effective when they are sharp, they will actually be safer to use because they will cut with less pressure than a dull blade and behave much more predictably. There is no single or \"best\" way to sharpen cutlery, because we all have our different preferences and skill levels. Different sharpening methods will also suit different blade shapes and sizes, and you probably would not use the same sharpening tool on a pocketknife and sword. To make the matter even less universal, some prefer to sharpen at home while others sharpen in the field, so the \"best\" sharpening tools will necessarily differ.
