Today in the shop I am attempting to make a full tang hatchet. I say attempt, because the first one turns out to be a failure, but we persevere, and finish with a really nice little hatchet that looks gorgeous. I’ll show you how you can make a pretty useful little tool with very little overhead cost. If you have the time, and the desire to put your best craftsman foot forward, then you have the ability to make this super cool little hatchet.
