Fascinating! A tribute to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of a determined man. I knew of the crooked knife and its' versatility but I have never seen one used before except when I damned near amputated a finger while experimenting. His skill with the axe is well demonstrated.

Thanks for that Guillerrmo.
