I have one of the smaller range Gränsfors axes too. 😊
And I certainly see your point. Both with axes and guns.
To me, guns are a completely alian thing, I neither have or ever had any hunters in my circle of friends or family.
Sharp tools however (including sharp power tools), have been in my close proximity all my life.
I guess even if I know what sort of dammage a felling axe could do, I never really think about as there is no way on this green earth I could ever swing one and I stand corrected. 😊
As for the carving knifes and axes I own I pride myself with keeping them sharp enough to shave the hairs of my arm. Honestly, they are pretty usless in any other state as dull carving tools are more prone to slip and injure you and/ or mess up your work.😊
My (maternal) grandfather was a carpenter and taugth me how to use a lot of tools as a kid rather than hide them (that would have been impossible they were everywhere) or forbid me to touch them.
Of cause I only got to use the ones I was strong enough to handle safely and he was allways there to supervise me when needed. 😊
He also told me to respect the tools and never use them in a maner or for a task they wasn't made for because that's when they nip or bite.
