There’s something honest about a good axe in your hand. We carry leather-wrapped axes and hatchets made to be used, not just looked at. The axes come to us from Council Tool Co. in North Carolina and are wrapped by us at our workshop. We also carry two different sizes of stones and oil to keep them sharp for years, not seasons. New to wood chopping? Check out our selection of books, to learn everything you might need to know about axes, wood chopping and stacking.

Running a small business means constant juggling — and every team member wears a dozen hats. On any given day, we might be crafting new products, stepping in front of the camera to model them for content, and sourcing new American-made goods from fellow small businesses.

Multitasking is basically our full-time job within our full-time job — but there's something special about supporting other small businesses while building our own.

The Sierra Convertible Handbag has been a fan favorite since we first introduced it in March of last year. It’s sleek bucket design means it will stand up on its own, and easy conversion from handbag to crossbody means you have two bags in one! All of our leather and canvas goods are hand cut and sewn by our guys at the workshop in Syracuse! Add this beauty to your collection today!
