Akolyadich Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Zigmund, I am very impressed by your work! I come from pinsk, Belarus ... I moved to California when I was 4 years old. I came to visit Belarus from through Kiev 3 years ago! My father brought his axe from Belarus when we moved 18 years ago, we lost the axe a few years back camping... And there is no way we can find the same high quality axe head in the states... Would you be able to suggest where I can acquire a very sharp and high quality axe for my father? Quote
