Best Made Hey Now Axe ($220)
A good axe needs to be comfortably balanced, sharp, and quality-controlled enough to keep the head from flying off and gouging hapless passersby. If it also happens to be portable, versatile, and gorgeous, you’ve got yourself a downright legendary axe. That’s what you get with the Hey Now, which sports a 24-inch hickory handle with a one-and-three-quarter-pound fine-grain steel head protected by a classy leather blade guard. And if you want to easily be able to transport the axe into a forest or business meeting, check out Best Made’s awesome Axe Sling.
